- _i_m_g_e_d is a pixel-based editor for making changes to image files stored in
- the SGI imglib format. Images may be stored in colormap, RGB, or
- greyscale format.
-
- _i_m_g_e_d may also be used to create a new colormap or RGB image by
- specifying an X and Y size on the command line. If the ----rrrrggggbbbb flag is
- given, the new image is created as RGB, otherwise it is created as a
- colormap image. New images are initialized with a solid grey background.
-
- The _i_m_g_e_d window contains a scaled representation of the image being
- edited. The scale of the image can be changed by resizing the window. The
- pixels in the image will appear as squares, optionally separated by black
- lines. The title of the _i_m_g_e_d window indicates the type of image that is
- being edited.
-
- The three mouse buttons all have a function within _i_m_g_e_d . The left and
- middle buttons both act as brushes. Each brush remembers a "current
- color". While the brush buttons are pressed, drawing will take place in
- the color of that brush. If the Shift key is held down, pushing a brush
- button causes the brush to change color to the color of the pixel
- directly under the cursor. The Alt key also modifies the operation of the
- brush buttons for RGB images. While the Alt key is held down, drawing
- will be performed in "blending mode". The pixels being drawn on will be
- blended with the color of the brush.
-
- Pushing the right button causes a popup menu to appear, which can be used
- to change the mode of imged. Several options are available. The "no
- grid" option turns off the grid of black lines separating the pixels.
- Similarly, the "grid" option turns the grid on.

- _i_m_g_e_d has four different drawing modes: _s_k_e_t_c_h, _r_e_c_t, _l_i_n_e, and _s_m_e_a_r.
- To change the drawing mode, select the appropriate entry from the popup
- menu with the right mouse button.
-
- _s_k_e_t_c_h _m_o_d_e lets you change pixels directly under the cursor to the
- brush color when a brush button is depressed. Holding a
- brush button down while moving the mouse results in a
- sketch-like drawing.
-
- _r_e_c_t _m_o_d_e lets you create rectangles by pressing a brush button at
- one corner of the desired rectangle and holding the button
- while moving the cursor. When you release the button, the
- rectangle is drawn.

-
- _l_i_n_e _m_o_d_e lets you draw straight lines by pressing a brush button at
- one end of the desired line segment and holding the button
- while moving the cursor. When you release the button, the
- line segment connecting the two points is drawn.
-
- _s_m_e_a_r _m_o_d_e is only available for use with RGB pictures. It lets you
- smear an area with the brush. The pixels surrounding the
- pixel the brush is on are used to determine the color used
- for that pixel.
-
- HHHHAAAALLLLFFFFTTTTOOOONNNNEEEE
- Often when editing small images, you need the ability to draw
- checkerboard patterns of pixels. This can be done easily by selecting the
- "halftone" option from the popup menu. The right and middle mouse buttons
- will draw on pixels of opposite parity. To turn off the halftone mode,
- select the "solid" option from the menu.
-

- To write out changes to an image, select the "write" option from the
- popup menu. The current state of the image will be written to the file be
- edited. Changes must be written to a file to be saved.
