NAME

show - displays a bit-mapped image on a mgr window.  

SYNOPSIS

show [-r] [ <x coord> ] [ <y coord> ] [<bits wide>]  

DESCRIPTION

Show copies its standard input, which is assumed to be in MGR bitmap format to the window as a bit mapped image. The starting position of the bit map relative to the top left corner of the window may be given as x coord and y coord respectively. If bits wide is specified on the command line, show assumes no bitmap header is present. Specifying -r changes the sense of black and white.

Bit maps too big to fit on the window are clipped. The incoming data for each row should be rounded up to an even number of bytes. The bits are displayed left to right, then top to bottom.  

BUGS

Large bit maps take too long to display.
