NAME

xwdtoppm - convert a color X11 or X10 window dump file into a portable pixmap  

SYNOPSIS

xwdtoppm [xwdfile]  

DESCRIPTION

Reads a color X11 or X10 window dump file as input. Produces a portable pixmap as output.

Using this program, you can convert anything on an X workstation's screen into a ppm pixmap. Just display whatever you're interested in, do an xwd, run it through xwdtoppm, and then use pnmcut to select the part you want.  

BUGS

I haven't tested this tool with very many configurations, so there are probably bugs. Please let me know if you find any.
