imageoptim: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error about imageoptim-cli

[JamieMason]

Hey @nlambert, I think this will be that the executable wasn't built with linux as a target (nexe build target options here) but, ImageOptim, ImageAlpha, and, JPEGmini are all Mac Apps. imageoptim-cli automates those Apps, so even with this fixed imageoptim-cli wouldn't be suitable for you unfortunately Neil because those Apps aren't available on Linux (as far as I know).

(https://github.com/imagemin/imagemin-cli is a really good alternative)

Ah, got it!

ImageOptim does such a great job! Pity :-)

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll have a look. There are soooo many ways to go... down the rabbit hole I go!

I've tested mozjpeg with good results and have just learned about a whole bunch of other formats that I was completely clueless about (webp, jpeg2000...).

Looks like webp with jpg/png fallback is a good way to go.

Thanks again, @JamieMason
