NAME

       pnmtoxwd - convert a portable anymap into an X11 window dump

SYNOPSIS

       pnmtoxwd [-pseudodepth n] [-directcolor] [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION

       Reads a portable anymap as input.  Produces an X11 window dump as output.  This window dump can be displayed using the xwud tool.

       Normally,  pnmtoxwd  produces  a StaticGray dump file for pbm and pgm files.  For ppm, it writes a PseudoColor dump file if there are up to
       256 colors in the input, and a DirectColor dump file otherwise.	The -directcolor flag can be used to force a DirectColor  dump.   And  the
       -pseudodepth flag can be used to change the depth of PseudoColor dumps from the default of 8 bits / 256 colors.
