The default is Standard Input. + +<P><I>output_file_pattern</I> tells how to name the output files. It +is the file specification of the output file, except that the first +occurence of "%d" in it is replaced by the image sequence +number in unpadded ASCII decimal, with the sequence starting at 0. If +there is no "%d" in the pattern, <B>pamsplit</B> fails. + +<P>The default output file pattern is "image%d". + +<p>The <b>-padname</b> option specifies to how many characters you +want the image sequence number in the output file name padded with +zeroes. <b>pamsplit</b> adds leading zeroes to the image sequence +number to get up to at least that number of characters. This is just +the number of characters in the sequence number part of the name. For +example, <b>pamsplit - outputfile%d.ppm -padname=3</b> would yield +output filenames <b>outputfile000.ppm</b>, <b>outputfile001.ppm</b>, +etc. + +<p>The default is no padding (equivalent to <b>-padname=0</b>. +<P>The <b>-padname</b> option was new in Netpbm 10.23 (July 2004). +Before that, there was never any padding. + + +<P>Note that to do the reverse operation (combining multiple +single-image Netpbm files into a multi-image one), there is no special +Netpbm program.
