xpmtoppm(1)                          General Commands Manual                          xpmtoppm(1)

NAME
       xpmtoppm - convert an X11 pixmap into a portable pixmap

SYNOPSIS
       xpmtoppm [--alphaout={alpha-filename,-}] [-verbose] [xpmfile]

DESCRIPTION
       Reads an X11 pixmap (XPM version 1 or 3) as input.  Produces a PPM file as output.

OPTIONS
       --alphaout=alpha-filename
              xpmtoppm creates a PBM file containing the transparency mask for the image.  If the
              input image doesn't contain transparency information, the alpha-filename file  con-
              tains  all  white (opaque) alpha values.  If you don't specify --alphaout, xpmtoppm
              does not generate an alpha file, and if the input image has  transparency  informa-
              tion, xpmtoppm simply discards it.

              If you specify - as the filename, xpmtoppm writes the alpha output to Standard Out-
              put and discards the image.

              See pnmcomp(1) for one way to use the alpha output file.

       --verbose
              xpmtoppm prints information about its processing on Standard Error.

LIMITATIONS
       The support to XPM version 3 is limited. Comments can only be single lines and there  must
       be for every pixel a default colorname for a color type visual.
