+.SH OPTION USAGE

+You can use the minimum unique abbreviation of the options. You
+can use two hyphens instead of one. You can separate an option name
+from its value with white space instead of an equals sign.

+.UN description
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This program is part of
+.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
+\&.
+.PP
+\fBpbmclean\fP cleans up a PBM image of random specks. It reads a
+PBM image as input and outputs a PBM that is the same as the input
+except with isolated pixels inverted.
+.PP
+You can use \fBpbmclean \fP to clean up "snow" on bitmap
+images.
+.PP
+There are two ways \fBpbmclean\fP can define "isolated" pixels:
+simple and extended. When you specify \fB-extended\fP, \fBpbmclean\fP
+uses extended; otherwise it uses basic.
+
+.UN basic
+.SS Basic Mode
+.PP
+In basic mode, \fBpbmclean\fP looks at each pixel individually, and any
+pixel that doesn't have at least a minimum number of pixels of the same color
+touching it is considered isolated and \fBpbmclean\fP erases it.
+.PP
+The \fB-minneighbors\fP option specifies the minimum number of neighboring
+pixels of the same color for a pixel \fInot\fP to be considered
+isolated.
+.PP
+For example, if \fB-minneighbors\fP is two and there are two contiguous
+black pixels in an otherwise white field, each of those pixels is isolated,
+so \fBpbmclean\fP erases them - turns both white.
+.PP
+The default minimum 1 pixel - \fBpbmclean\fP flips only completely
+isolated pixels.
+.PP
+(A \fB-minneighbors\fP value greater than 8 generates a completely
+inverted image (but use \fBpnminvert\fP to do that) -- or a
+completely white or completely black image with the \fB-black\fP or
+\fB-white\fP option).
+.PP
+\fBpbmclean\fP considers the area beyond the edges of the image to
+be white. (This matters when you consider pixels right on the edge of
+the image).
+.PP
+\fBpbmclean\fP does not distinguish between foreground and background; by
+default, it flips isolated pixels of either color. But you can
+specify \fB-black\fP or \fB-white\fP to have it flip only pixels of one
+color.
+
+.UN extended
+.SS Extended Mode
+.PP
+In extended mode, \fBpbmclean\fP erases all blobs which don't have the
+specified minimum number of pixels. A blob is a set of contiguous pixels of
+the foreground color. The minimum number of pixels is one plus
+the \fB-minneighbors\fP value. You specify the foreground color with
+\fB-black\fP and \fB-white\fP (default is black).
+.PP
+For example, if \fB-minneighbors\fP is 2 and the foreground color is
+black, and the image contains a straight line 4 pixels long, \fBpbmclean\fP
+erases that -- turns all four pixels white. \fBpbmclean\fP also erases
+4 pixels in a square or L-shape.
+.PP
+The default \fB-minneighbors\fP is 4, so a blob must have at least 5
+pixels to escape \fBpbmclean\fP's purge.
+.PP
+Extended mode was new in Netpbm 10.56 (September 2011).
+
+
+.UN options
+.SH OPTIONS
+.PP
+In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
+(most notably \fB-quiet\fP, see
+.UR index.html#commonoptions
+ Common Options
+.UE
+\&), \fBpbmclean\fP recognizes the following
+command line options:
+
+
+.TP
+\fB-black\fP
+
+.TP
+\fB-white\fP
+Flip pixels of the specified color. By default, if you specify
+neither \fB-black\fP nor \fB-white\fP, \fBpbmclean\fP flips both
+black and white pixels which do not have sufficient identical
+neighbors. If you specify \fB-black\fP, \fBpbmclean\fP leaves the
+white pixels alone and just erases isolated black pixels. Vice versa
+for \fB-white\fP. You may specify both \fB-black\fP and
+\fB-white\fP to get the same as the default behavior.
+
+.TP
+\fB-minneighbors=\fP\fIN\fP
+This determines how many pixels must be in a cluster in order
+for \fBpbmclean\fP to consider them legitimate and not clean them
+out of the image. See
+.UR #description
+Description
+.UE
+\&.
+.sp
+Before December 2001, \fBpbmclean\fP accepted \fB-\fP\fIN\fP
+instead of \fB-minneighbors\fP. Before Netpbm 10.27 (March 2005),
+\fB-minneighbors\fP was \fB-minneighbor\fP.
+
+.TP
+\fB-extended\fP
+\fBpbmclean\fP uses extended, as opposed to basic, isolated pixel
+detection.
+.sp
+This option was new in Netpbm 10.56 (September 2011).
