NAME
pnmtosgi - convert a PNM image to a SGI image file
SYNOPSIS
pnmtosgi
[-verbatim|-rle]
[-imagename Name]
[pnmfile]
DESCRIPTION
This program is part of Netpbm(1).
pnmtosgi reads a PNM image as input and produces an SGI image file as
output. The SGI image will be 2-dimensional (1 channel) for PBM and
PGM input, and 3-dimensional (3 channels) for PPM.
OPTIONS
In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
(most notably -quiet, see
Common Options ⟨index.html#commonoptions⟩ ), pnmtosgi recognizes the
following command line options:
-verbatim
Write an uncompressed file.
-rle (default)
Write a compressed (run length encoded) file.
-imagename name
Write the string "name" into the imagename field of the header.
The name string is limited to 79 characters. If no name is
given, pnmtosgi writes "no name" into this field.
