+.UN description
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This program is part of
+.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
+\&.
+.PP
+\fBpamsplit\fP reads a PNM or PAM stream as input. It copies each image
+in the input into a separate file, in the same format.
+.PP
+\fInetpbmfile\fP is the file name of the input file, or
+\fB-\fP to indicate Standard Input. The default is Standard Input.
+.PP
+\fIoutput_file_pattern\fP tells how to name the output files. It
+is the file name of the output file, except that the first
+occurrence of "%d" in it is replaced by the image sequence
+number in unpadded ASCII decimal, with the sequence starting at 0. If
+there is no "%d" in the pattern, \fBpamsplit\fP fails.
+.PP
+The default output file pattern is "image%d".
+.PP
+The \fB-padname\fP option specifies how many characters you
+want the image sequence number in the output file name padded with
+zeroes. \fBpamsplit\fP adds leading zeroes to the image sequence
+number to get up to at least that number of characters. This is just
+the number of characters in the sequence number part of the name. For
+example, \f(CWpamsplit - outputfile%d.ppm -padname=3\fP would yield
+output filenames \fBoutputfile000.ppm\fP, \fBoutputfile001.ppm\fP,
+etc.
+.PP
+Note that to do the reverse operation (combining multiple
+single-image Netpbm files into a multi-image one), there is no special
+Netpbm program. Just use \fBcat\fP.
+.PP
+If you just want to find out basic information about the images in a
+stream, you can use \fBpamfile\fP on the stream.
+.PP
+To extract images from a stream and generate a single stream containing
+them, use \fBpampick\fP.
+.PP
+To run a program on each image in a stream without the hassle of temporary
+files, use \fBpamexec\fP.
+
+
+.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
+\&), \fBpamsplit\fP recognizes the following
+command line option:
+
+
+.TP
+\fB-padname=\fP\fIn\fP
+Specify the width (i.e. number of digits) of the image sequence
+number field in the filenames of the output files. The image
+sequence will be padded with leading zeroes to achieve the stated
+width.
+.sp
+The default is no padding (equivalent to \fB-padname=0\fP).
+.sp
+The \fB-padname\fP option was new in Netpbm 10.23 (July 2004).
+Before that, there was never any padding.
