Convert a PNM file to a Sun rasterfile.

Convert a PNM image to a RAST image
pnmtorast {{path/to/input.pnm}} > {{path/to/output.rast}}
Force either `RT_STANDARD` or `RT_BYTE_ENCODED` form for the output
pnmtorast -{{standard|rle}} {{path/to/input.pnm}} > {{path/to/output.rast}}

NAME
       pnmtorast - convert a portable pixmap into a Sun rasterfile

SYNOPSIS
       pnmtorast [-standard|-rle] [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION
       Reads a portable pixmap as input.  Produces a Sun rasterfile as output.

       Color  values  in  Sun rasterfiles are eight bits wide, so pnmtorast will automatically scale
       colors to have a maxval of 255.  An extra pnmdepth step is not necessary.

OPTIONS
       The -standard flag forces the result to be in RT_STANDARD form; the  -rle  flag,  RT_BYTE_EN‐
       CODED, which is smaller but, well, less standard.  The default is -rle.

       All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
