rasttopbm(1) PBM Plus rasttopbm(1)
NAME
rasttopbm - convert a Sun raster file into a portable bitmap
SYNOPSIS
rasttopbm [rastfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a Sun raster file as input. Produces a portable bit-
map as output. NOTE: since it uses Sun-specific include
files and libraries, pbmtorast will compile only on Suns.
Using this program you can convert anything you can see on a
Sun screen into a pbm bitmap. Just display whatever you're
interested in, do a screendump, run it through rasttopbm,
and then use pnmcut to select the part you want.
The rasttoppm filter handles color images in addition to
providing the same functionality as rasttopbm; but rasttopbm
is worth keeping, since it is significantly faster.
