If the input is a multiple image file, +the output consists of several concatenated RLE images. +.PP +The RLE file will contain either a three channel color image (24 +bits) or a single channel grayscale image (8 bits) depending upon the +pnm file depth. If a converted ppm is displayed on an 8 bit display, +the image must be dithered. In order to produce a better looking +image (on 8 bit displays), it is recommended that the image be +quantizing (to 8 bit mapped color) prior to its display. This may be +done by piping the output of this program into the Utah \fBmcut\fP or +\fBrlequant\fP utilities. We show an example of this later. + +.UN lbAE +.SH OPTIONS + + +.TP +\fB-v\fP +This option will cause \fBpnmtorle\fP to operate in verbose mode. The header +information is written to "stderr". Actually, there is not much header +information stored in a Netpbm file, so this information is minimal. +.TP +\fB-h\fP +This option allows the header of the Netpbm image to be dumped to "stderr" +without converting the file. It is equivalent to using the -v option except +that no file conversion takes place. +.TP +\fB-a\fP +This option causes \fBpnmtorle\fP to include an transparency channel in the +output image. The transparency channel is based on the image: Wherever a +pixel is black, the corresponding trasparency value is transparent. +Everywhere else, the transparency value is fully opaque. + +.TP +\fB-o\fP \fIoutfile\fP +If you specify this option, \fBpnmtorle\fP writes the output to +this file. If \fIoutfile\fP is \fB-\fP or you don't specify +\fB-o\fP, \fBpnmtorle\fP writes the output to Standard Output. + +.TP +\fIpnmfile\fP +The name of the Netpbm image data file to be converted. If not specified, +standard input is assumed. + + +.UN lbAF +.SH EXAMPLES + +.nf + pnmtorle -v file.ppm -o file.rle +.fi +.PP +While running in verbose mode, convert file.ppm to RLE format and store +resulting data in file.rle. + +.nf + pnmtorle -h file.pgm +.fi +.PP +Dump the header information of the Netpbm file called file.pgm. + +.UN lbAG +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR "rletopnm" (1)\c +\& + +.UN lbAH +.SH AUTHOR + +.nf +Wes Barris, +Army High Performance Computing Research Center (AHPCRC) +Minnesota Supercomputer Center, Inc. +.fi +.SH DOCUMENT SOURCE +This manual page was generated by the Netpbm tool 'makeman' from HTML +source.
