NAME

bthin - thins binary objects down to a single pixel line  

SYNOPSIS

bthin [-v NN] < inseq > outseq  

DESCRIPTION

bthin thins objects in a binary HIPS image to single pixel width lines. Image must be of type byte. NOTE: This program uses a very simple and fast algorithm, but has some artifacts which are easily correctable. It often leave single pixel fragments that can be removed with bclean. On sharp bends in the object, it often leaves small holes which can be filled in with fill_holes.

So a typical command would be:
      bthin < inseq | bclean | fill_holes -e > seq  

OPTIONS

[-v NN] pixel value for thinned output objects (default = 255).
