I seem to be having some problems with giftoppm, included in the Amiga version of PBMPlus.lzh, on abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov... When using the program, the only output I get is an empty file... The documentation os far from complete, and I've tried: giftoppm file.gif file.ppm and giftoppm -vq file.gif file.ppm Can anyone out there help me with this? -- | husc6!m2c!wpi!jdutka | "No matter how big a straw, you can't suck water up | | jdutka@wpi.wpi.edu | more than 34 feet." | | John Dutka, Jr. | -A WPI PROFESSOR WHO WISHES TO REMAIN ANONYMOUS | | jdutka%wpi.wpi.edu%mitvma.bitnet __________________________________________|

Try this: giftoppm >file.ppm file.gif As best as I can remember all the PBMplus programs send their output to stdout. Remember that AmigaDOS/Shell wants it's I/O redirection right after the command name -- Unix will take it most anywhere. -Rusty- -- Rusty Haddock DOMAIN: rusty@mimsy.cs.umd.edu Computer Science Department PATH: {uunet,rutgers}!mimsy!rusty University of Maryland "IBM sucks silicon!"

You can pick up the documentation (as well as the binaries) for my
Amiga port of PBM Plus from pc.usl.edu (that's 130.70.40.3 for the
nameserver impaired) in the directories /pub/amiga/pbmplus/{doc,bin}.
