A simplistic tool to take SVG files and compile them into a CSS file as classes that use data: URIs for background images.
This is the first revision and doesn't have options or anything nice yet. I wrote it to use with Lipis' country flags so it's still geared to that use.
It looks in a directory (currently input) for files with the names (not including .svg) that you specify in the array @file_names. The resulting file will be output/compiled.css with classes that look like this:
.flag-whatever {
background-image: url("data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' ...");
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 320px;
height: 240px;
}"whatever" in each case will be the name of each file as specified earlier. You can edit the constant CSS_TEMPLATE to change this - a future version of this tool will have the template externally to avoid needing to touch the code.
