mkcs
is a fast and easy to use command line tool to create contact sheets from videos as well as
collections of images, the goal is to be as fast as possible while also producing good quality
output, written in C and relying on C libraries to function, we can also expect mkcs
to be very
light on hardware resources...or at least it should be.
