picttoppm - convert a Macintosh PICT file into a portable pixmap
SYNOPSIS
picttoppm

DESCRIPTION
Reads a PICT file (version 1 or 2) and outputs a portable pixmap.
Useful as the first step in converting a scanned image to something
that can be displayed on Unix.
OPTIONS

-
Turns on verbose mode which prints a
a whole bunch of information that only
picttoppm
hackers really care about.
BUGS
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.
