gimp 16-bit caution

Gimp 2.8 opens 16-bit png files, but saves as 8-bit tif or png. Octave 4.2.2 on the other hand, does write 16-bit png with imwrite. Octave's behaviour depends on shared libraries, too, of course.

On Linux,
file filename.png
gives information about the file, like bit-depth and so on.
