901125 to be changed as 25-11-1990 for eg

Can someone help please ?? Smilie

Regards,
The change from 901125 to 25-11-1990 results in a valid date. What happens if you have 040101 ? Would it become 01-01-2004 or 01-01-1904 ?

NAME
ppmbrighten - change an images Saturation and Value from an HSV map SYNOPSIS
ppmbrighten [-n] [-s <+- saturation>] [-v <+- value>] <ppmfile> DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Converts the image from RGB space to HSV space and changes the Value by <+- value> as a percentage. Likewise with the Saturation. Doubling the Value would involve ppmbrighten -v 100 to add 100 percent to the Value. The 'n' option normalizes the Value to exist between 0 and 1 (normalized). SEE ALSO
