SYNOPSIS
picttoppm [-verbose] [pictfile]

as the first step in converting a scanned image to something that can be
displayed on Unix.
OPTIONS
-v Turns on verbose mode which prints a a whole bunch of information
that only picttoppm hackers really care about.

The PICT file format is a general drawing format. picttoppm only
---------
supports a small subset of its operations but is still very useful for
files produced by scanning software. In particular, text added to a
scanned image will be silently ignored.
