NAME
ppmpat - make a pretty pixmap
SYNOPSIS
ppmpat -gingham2|-g2|-gingham3| _✓w_✓i_✓d_✓t_✓h _✓h_✓e_✓i_✓g_✓h_✓t
DESCRIPTION
Produces a portable pixmap of the specified width and
height, with a pattern in it.
This program is mainly to demonstrate use of the ppmdraw
routines, a simple but powerful drawing library. See the
ppmdraw.h include file for more info on using these rou-
tines. Still, some of the patterns can be rather pretty.
If you have a color workstation, something like ppmpat
-squig 300 300 | ppmquant should generate a nice background.
