SYNOPSIS

       ppmdither [-dim power] [-red shades] [-green shades] [-blue shades] [ppmfile]

       format suitable for color printers, use -red 2 -green 2 -blue 2.

OPTIONS

       -dim power    The  size of the dithering matrix.  The dithering matrix is a square whose dimension is a power of 2.  power is that power of
                     2.  The default is 4, for a 16 by 16 matrix.

       -red shades   The number of red shades to be used, including black; minimum of 2.

       -green shades The number of green shades to be used, including black; minimum of 2.
