<h2>NAME</h2>

pnmtoxwd - convert a PNM into an X11 window dump

<h2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2>

<b>pnmtoxwd</b>

[<b>-pseudodepth</b> <i>n</i>]

[<b>-directcolor</b>]

[<i>pnmfile</i>]

<h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2>

<p>This program is part of <a href="index.html">Netpbm</a>.

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

<p>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.

<p>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 <b>pnmtoxwd</b> are always big endian.

<h2 id="options">OPTIONS</h2>

<p>In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
(most notably <b>-quiet</b>, see <a href="index.html#commonoptions">
Common Options</a>), <b>pnmtoxwd</b> recognizes the following
command line options:

<dl compact>
<dt><b>-directcolor</b>

<dd>
<p>Output in DirectColor format.

<dt><b>-pseudodepth</b> <i>1-16</i>

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