sunclient < imagefile > Animafile
for the Cray or Sun:
imageclient < sunset.image > Animafile
-i input file
-o Anima file

DESCRIPTION
hipsclient can be used to compress, transmit, record and/or
save to a file a HIPS image or sequence of HIPS images.
rleclient can be used to compress, transmit, record and/or
save to a file an RLE image.
sunclient can be used to compress, transmit, record and/or
save to a file a Sun rasterfile.
imageclient can be used to compress, transmit, record and/or
save to a file the sample file contained in the imageclient
directory.
OPTIONS
Options may appear in any order. Later options override previous
ones.
- -i inputfile
-
Input file name. The file can also be gotten by redirection
from stdin (see above).
- -o filename
-
If no connection was set up with the -w option, save the image
on the client. If it was, save the image on the server. Redirection
to stdout can also save the image on the client (see above), but
will have no effect if a connection was set up.
- -w hostname
-
Use
hostname
to indicate the server that will display the image.
If this argument is omitted, no connection to a server will be established,
and the image(s) will be saved as an Anima file.
- -p prognum
-
Contact the host at the specified program number. This is unnecessary
with hosts with one display screen (like a PC), but is required for
those that can specify the program number (like Suns).
- -c compression
-
Select compression as Lempel-Ziv compression, CCC
compression and run-length encoding, or color quantization (if
the image is more than 8 bits per pixel); you
may also select none. Choices:
(1) "c" : CCC and run-length encoding,
(2) "q" : quantization to 8 bits,
(3) "cl" : CCC, run-length encoding, and Lempel-Ziv,
(4) "ql" : quantization to 8 bits and Lempel-Ziv,
(5) or "n" : no compression (default).
- -r option
-
Record the image(s) on videotape or videodisk. option
can be either the desired frame number to seek to, or -1 to
enable automatic seeking to the first available frame.
- -s corner_x corner_y
-
This argument only has an effect if the server display resolution
is smaller than that of the image. It sets the upper left corner
of the portion of the image that will be displayed on the server.
- -v
-
Flips the image around an x axis in its center.
- -h
-
