You may use +double hyphens instead of single hyphen to denote options. You may use +white space in place of the equals sign to separate an option name +from its value. + +.UN description +.SH DESCRIPTION +.PP +This program is part of +.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c +\&. +.PP +\fBpamfile\fP reads one or more Netpbm files as input and writes +out short descriptions of the image type, size, etc. This is partly +for use in shell scripts, so the format is not particularly pretty. +.PP +By default, \fBpamfile\fP reads only the header of the input file. +If that file is a pipe, that might cause problems for the process that is +feeding the pipe. In that case, see the \fB-allimages\fP option. + +.UN options +.SH OPTIONS + + +.TP +\fB-allimages\fP +This option causes \fBpamfile\fP to describe every image in each +input file. Without this option, \fBpamfile\fP describes only the +first image in each input file. +.sp +This option also causes \fBpamfile\fP to read all the images from +the input stream, whereas without it, \fBpamfile\fP reads only the header +of the first one. If the input stream is from a pipe, the process that is +feeding the pipe might require the entire stream to be consumed. In +that case, use this option even if the stream contains only one image. +.sp +This option has no effect if you also specify \fB-count\fP. +.sp +Note that before July 2000, a file could not contain more than one +image and many programs ignore all but the first. +.sp +This option was new in Netpbm 9.5 (July 2000). + +.TP +\fB-comments\fP +This option causes \fBpamfile\fP to include for each PAM image +a report of the comments from the header of the image. +.sp +For a PBM, PGM, or PPM image, \fBpamfile\fP reports there are no +comments, even if there are. +.sp +This option was new in Netpbm 10.35 (August 2006). + +.TP +\fB-count\fP +This option causes \fBpamfile\fP to display only a count of how many +images are in each input file. +.sp +As with \fB-allimages\fP, this causes \fBpamfile\fP to read all the +images. +.sp +This option was new with Netpbm 10.31 (December 2005). + + + +.UN seealso +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR "pam" (5)\c +\&, +.BR "ppmhist" (1)\c +\&, +\fBfile\fP + +.UN author +.SH AUTHOR + +Copyright (C) 1991 by Jef Poskanzer. +.SH DOCUMENT SOURCE +This manual page was generated by the Netpbm tool 'makeman' from HTML +source.
