NAME

       pamdice - slice a Netpbm image into many horizontally and/or vertically

SYNOPSIS

       pamslice -outstem=filenamestem [-width=width] [-height=height] [-verbose] [filename]

       You can use the minimum unique abbreviation of the options.  You can use two hyphens instead of one.  You
       can separate an option name from its value with white space instead of an equals sign.

DESCRIPTION

       Reads  a  PAM, PBM, PGM, or PPM image as input.  Splits it horizontally and/or vertically into equal size
       pieces and writes them into separate files as the same kind of image.

       See the -outstem option for information on naming of the output files.

       The -width and -height options determine the size of the output pieces.

       pnmcat can rejoin the images.

OPTIONS

       -outstem=filenamestem
              This  option  determines  the  names  of  the  output  files.    Each   output   file   is   named
              filenamestem_y_x.type  where  filenamestem  is  the  value of the -outstem option, x and y are the
              horizontal and vertical locations, respectively, in the input image  of  the  output  image,  zero
              being the leftmost and top, and type is .pbm, .pgm, .ppm, or .pam, depending on the type of image.

       -width=width
              gives the width in pixels of the output images.  The rightmost pieces are smaller than this if the
              input image is not a multiple of width pixels wide.

       -height=height
              gives  the  height in pixels of the output images.  The bottom pieces are smaller than this if the
              input image is not a multiple of height pixels high.

       -verbose
              Print information about the processing to Standard Error.
