NAME

       pnmtoxwd - convert a PNM into an X11 window dump

SYNOPSIS

       pnmtoxwd

       [-pseudodepth n]

       [-directcolor]

       [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pnmtoxwd  reads  a  PNM  image  as input and produces an X11 window dump as output.  You can display this
       output with xwud.

       Normally, pnmtoxwd produces a StaticGray dump file  for  PBM  and  PGM  files.   For  PPM,  it  writes  a
       PseudoColor dump file if there are up to 256 colors in the input, and a DirectColor dump file otherwise.

       In  an  X11  window dump file, various integers can be represented in either big endian (most significant
       byte first) or little endian code.  Those generated by pnmtoxwd are always big endian.

OPTIONS

       In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (most notably  -quiet,  see   Common
       Options ), pnmtoxwd recognizes the following command line options:

       -directcolor

              Output in DirectColor format.

       -pseudodepth 1-16

              Set  the  depth  of  PseudoColor dump in bits.  Values between 1 to 16 are accepted.  Default is 8
              (for a maximum of 256 colors.)
