NAME
pfsinmulti - read several streams of frames and write pfs streams to named pipes SYNOPSIS
pfsinmulti pfsinmulti <file> [--frames f:s:t] [--skip-frames] [<file>...] -- command @1 @2 [@3 ...] DESCRIPTION
Use this command to read several animation sequences and write them to pfsstreams. This command is useful with those pfs programs, which take several pfs streams as arguments. For example, the following command can be used to combine two animations so that there are stitched together: pfsinmulti anim_a-%04d.hdr anim_b-%04d.hdr -- pfscat @1 @2 arguments @1 and @2 are replaced with named pipes for anim_a-%04d.hdr and anim_b-%04d.hdr frames respectively. command argument is obliga- tory and it must be preceded with '--'. There should be as many @1, @2, .., @n arguments as there are animation sequences given as input. Arguments --frames, --skip-frames and other options are handled the same way as in pfsin program. Also pfsinmulti recognizes the same file formats as pfsin. Technically, pfsinmulti creates a named pipe for each pfsstream, replaces @n arguments with the names of those pipes and deletes the pipes when command finishes. EXAMPLES
pfsinmulti image1.hdr image2.hdr -- cat @1 @2 | pfsview Does the same as 'pfsv image1.hdr image2.hdr' but in much more sophisticated way. SEE ALSO
pfsin(1) BUGS
This command currently does not handle multiple frames given with a %d pattern in case of LDR formats: JPEG, PNG, PNM. Please report bugs and comments to Rafal Mantiuk <mantiuk@mpi-sb.mpg.de>. pfsinmulti(1)

NAME
pfscat - Concatenate frames in PFS stream SYNOPSIS
pfscat [--horizontal] [--vertical] [-j <type>] [-R <val>] [-G <val>] [-B <val>] [-Y <val>] [--help] image1.pfs image2.pfs ... DESCRIPTION
Read number of frames as input, stitch them either horizontally or vertically, and produce single frame as output. If frames are not all the same size they are justified with each other - by default they are centered, but can also be flushed with a specified edge. OPTIONS
--horizontal, -H Stitch frames horizontally. --vertical, -V Stitch frames vertically. -j <type> Specify justification of input frames. Predefined types are: min, max, center. -R <val>, -G <val>, -B <val> Color of an extra space in a resulting image. Default color is black, and if some of the components is not specified, its value is set to 0.0. -Y <val> Color of an extra space in luminance mode. --help, -h Print a list of commandline options. EXAMPLES
pfsinmulti anim1_%04d.hdr anim2_%04d.hdr -- pfscat @1 @2 --vertical Stitch two hdr animations in vertical alignment. 'pfscat' is taken as an argument by 'pfsinmulti', therefore it must be preceded with '--'. Number of @1 @2 ... @n arguments must be the same as number of animations to combine. NOTES
Note that either --horizontal or --vertical option must be specified. SEE ALSO
