All it does now is invoke +\fBpnmquant\fP or \fBpnmremap\fP. You should use one of those +programs in any new program, or if you are modifying an old program, +and your program does not have to work with a version of Netpbm before +9.21 (January 2001). \fBppmquant\fP exists only for name +compatibility. +.PP +\fBpnmquant\fP is fully backward compatible with \fBppmquant\fP +\fIwithout\fP the \fB-mapfile\fP option; \fBpnmremap\fP is fully +backward compatible with \fBppmquant\fP \fIwith\fP the +\fB-mapfile\fP option. +.PP +Except with differences suggested by the syntax synopsis above, +\fBppmquant\fP's function is the same as \fBpnmquant\fP and +\fBpnmremap\fP. +.PP +Before Netpbm 10.19 (November 2003), \fBppmquant\fP was a completely +separate program from \fBpnmquant\fP, and was a bona fide PPM program. +That means if you gave it a PGM or PBM image as input, it would process it +as if it were PPM and generate a PPM output. Now, since it is really a +PNM program, it processes PBM and PGM inputs as what they are and produces +the same kind of output. +.PP +Note: The reason \fBppmquant\fP was changed in Netpbm 10.19 is +that for some time before that, \fBppmquant\fP had a serious bug that +would have been difficult to fix -- it chose the wrong color set. +Maintaining two versions of the same code did not make sense. + +.UN seealso +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR "pnmquant" (1)\c +\&, +.BR "pnmremap" (1)\c +\&, +.BR "pnmcolormap" (1)\c +\&, +.BR "pamseq" (1)\c +\&, +.BR "ppm" (5)\c +\& + +.UN author +.SH AUTHOR + +Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 by Jef Poskanzer. +.SH DOCUMENT SOURCE +This manual page was generated by the Netpbm tool 'makeman' from HTML +source.
