+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This program is part of
+.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
+\&.
+.PP
+\fBrasttopnm\fP reads a Sun rasterfile as input and produces a PNM
+image as output. The type of the output file depends on the input
+file - if it's black and white, \fBrasttopnm\fP writes a PBM image.
+If it's grayscale, \fBrasttopnm\fP writes a PGM. If it's color,
+\fBrasttopnm\fP writes a PPM. The program tells you which type it is
+generating.

+In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm

+.UE
+\&), \fBrasttopnm\fP recognizes the following
+command line option:
+
+
+
+.TP
+\fB-index\fP
+This odd option tells \fBrasttopnm\fP to use the color map indices in
+the raster as if they are the color values.
+.sp
+In a colormapped Sun rasterfile, the header of the file contains a color
+map, associating each unique color that occurs in the file with an index
+number. The raster portion of the file then represents the color of a pixel
+with one of those colormap indices.
+.sp
+This option has found use as follows: take a regular grayscale Sun
+rasterfile in which all the grayscale value are represented, so the colormap
+indices are identical to the color values. Modify its color map so as to
+alter the colors in the image, in particular to equalize the colors. With
+that modified rasterfile as input, \fBrasttopnm\fP without \fB-index\fP
+produces the modified image. But with \fB-index\fP, it produces the original
+unmodified image.
+.sp
+This option was new in Netpbm 10.56 (September 2011).
