pnmpaste(1) AMIGA (21 February 1991) pnmpaste(1)
NAME
pnmpaste - paste a rectangle into a portable anymap
SYNOPSIS
pnmpaste [-replace|-or|-and |-xor] frompnmfile x y
[intopnmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads two portable anymaps as input. Inserts the first
anymap into the second at the specified location, and
produces a portable anymap the same size as the second as
output. If the second anymap is not specified, it is read
from stdin. The x and y can be negative, in which case they
are interpreted relative to the right and bottom of the
anymap, respectively.
This tool is most useful in combination with pnmcut. For
instance, if you want to edit a small segment of a large
image, and your image editor cannot edit the large image,
you can cut out the segment you are interested in, edit it,
and then paste it back in.
Another useful companion tool is pbmmask.
The optional flag specifies the operation to use when doing
the paste. The default is -replace. The other, logical
operations are only allowed if both input images are
bitmaps. These operations act as if white is TRUE and black
is FALSE.
All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique
prefix.
