pokey@well.UUCP (Jef Poskanzer) (02/12/88)
I've appended the README for my portable bitmap package. If it sounds like
something you want, you can
a) look in alt.sources, where I just posted it, or
b) FTP it from zap.mit.edu:contrib/pbm.tar.Z, or
c) wait for release 2 of X11, which *might* include pbm, or
d) SPECIAL ONE-TIME-ONLY DEAL: send me mail including a path from
ucbvax to you, and I'll mail you the package. Mail without a working
path will be ignored. Postings to newsgroups will be ignored.

Portable Bitmap Toolkit
Distribution of 09feb88
Included are a number of programs for converting various bitmap formats
to and from a portable format; plus some tools for manipulating the
portable bitmaps.
Files in this distribution:
README this
FORMATS descriptions of the various bitmap formats
Makefile guess
cbmtopbm.c convert from compact bitmap to portable bitmap
icontopbm.c convert from Sun icon to portable bitmap
macpainttopbm.c convert from Macintosh MacPaint to portable bitmap
rastertopbm.c convert from Sun raster to portable bitmap
xbmtopbm.c convert from X10 or X11 bitmap to portable bitmap
pbmtocbm.c convert from portable bitmap to compact bitmap
pbmtoicon.c convert from portable bitmap to Sun icon
pbmtoraster.c convert from portable bitmap to Sun raster
pbmtoxbm.c convert from portable bitmap to X11 bitmap
pbmtox10bm.c convert from portable bitmap to X10 bitmap
pbmtops.c convert from portable bitmap to PostScript
pbmtoptx.c convert from portable bitmap to Printronix
pbmtoascii.c convert from portable bitmap to ASCII graphic form
pbminvert.c invert a portable bitmap
pbmcrop.c crop a portable bitmap
pbmcatlr.c concatenate portable bitmaps left to right
pbmcattb.c concatenate portable bitmaps top to bottom
pbmfliplr.c flip a portable bitmap left for right
pbmfliptb.c flip a portable bitmap top for bottom
libpbm.c a few utility routines
pbm.h header file for libpbm
bmaliases csh script to make aliases for converting formats
*.man manual entries for all of the tools
Unpack the files, edit Makefile and change the options to suit,
make, and enjoy! I've tested this stuff under 4.2 BSD, 4.3 BSD,
and System V rel 2. Nevertheless, I'm sure bugs remain. Feedback
is welcome - send bug reports, enhancements, checks, money orders,
etc. to the addresses below.
