ppmflash(1) General Commands Manual ppmflash(1)NAME
ppmflash - brighten a picture up to complete white-out
SYNOPSIS
ppmflash flashfactor [ppmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Increases its brightness by the specified flashfactor up to a total white-out image. The flashfactor may
be in the range from 0.0 (original picture's brightness) to 1.0 (full white-out, The Second After).
As pnmgamma does not do the brightness correction in the way I wanted it, this small program was written.
This program is similar to ppmbrighten , but not exactly the same.

ppmshift - shift lines of a portable pixmap left or right by a random amount
SYNOPSIS
ppmshift shift [ppmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Shifts every row of image data to the left or right by a certain amount. The 'shift' parameter determines
by how many pixels a row is to be shifted at most.
Another one of those effects I intended to use for MPEG tests. Unfortunately, this program will not help me here - it creates too random
patterns to be used for animations. Still, it might give interesting results on still images.
EXAMPLE
Check this out: Save your favourite model's picture from something like alt.binaries.pictures.supermodels (ok, or from any other picture
source), convert it to ppm, and process it e.g. like this, assuming the picture is 800x600 pixels:
# take the upper half, and leave it like it is
pnmcut 0 0 800 300 cs.ppm >upper.ppm
# take the lower half, flip it upside down, dim it and distort it a little
pnmcut 0 300 800 300 cs.ppm | pnmflip -tb | ppmdim 0.7 |
ppmshift 10 >lower.ppm
# and concatenate the two pieces
pnmcat -tb upper.ppm lower.ppm >newpic.ppm
The resulting picture looks like the image being reflected on a water surface with slight ripples.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

Greetings,
I'm trying to delete a file with a weird name from within Terminal on a Mac.
It's a very old file (1992) with null characters in the name: ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘.

Hi all...
Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
Many tricky terminal escape codes are not catered for so I had to create workarounds.
One thing I searched for was this:

Well, guys I saw a question about GOTO for Python.
So this gave me the inspiration to attempt a GOTO function for 'dash', (bash and ksh too).
