xwdtopnm(1) General Commands Manual xwdtopnm(1)
NAME
xwdtopnm - convert a X11 or X10 window dump file into a portable anymap
SYNOPSIS
xwdtopnm [xwdfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a X11 or X10 window dump file as input. Produces a portable anymap as output. The
type of the output file depends on the input file - if it's black & white, a pbm file is
written, else if it's grayscale a pgm file, else a ppm file. The program tells you which
type it is writing.
Using this program, you can convert anything on an X workstation's screen into an anymap.
Just display whatever you're interested in, do an xwd, run it through xwdtopnm, and then
use pnmcut to select the part you want.
BUGS
I haven't tested this tool with very many configurations, so there are probably bugs.
Please let me know if you find any.
