ppmrelief(1) General Commands Manual ppmrelief(1)NAME
ppmrelief - run a Laplacian relief filter on a portable pixmap
SYNOPSIS
ppmrelief [ppmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Does a Laplacian relief filter, and writes a portable pixmap as output.
The Laplacian relief filter is described in "Beyond Photography" by Holzmann, equation 3.19. It's a sort of edge-detection.

pamoil(1) General Commands Manual pamoil(1)NAME
pamoil - turn a PAM image into an oil painting
SYNOPSIS
pamoil [-n N] [pamfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a Netpbm image as input. Does an "oil transfer", and writes the same type of Netpbm image as output.
The oil transfer is described in "Beyond Photography" by Holzmann, chapter 4, photo 7. It's a sort of localized smearing.
The smearing works like this: First, assume a grayscale image. For each pixel in the image, pamoil looks at a square neighborhood around
it. pamoil determines what is the most common pixel intensity in the neighborhood, and puts a pixel of that intensity into the output in
the same position as the input pixel.
For color images, or any arbitrary multi-channel image, pamoil computes each channel (e.g. red, green, and blue) separately the same way as
the grayscale case above.
At the edges of the image, where the regular neighborhood would run off the edge of the image, pamoil uses a clipped neighborhood.
OPTIONS -n size
This is the size of the neighborhood used in the smearing. The neighborhood is this many pixels in all four directions.
The default is 3.

We have quite a few threads about this subject. I have collected some of them and arranged them by the OS which is primarily discussed in the thread. That is because the exact procedure depends on the OS involved. What's more, since you often need to interact with the boot process, the... (0 Replies)
I'm writing a command shell, and I want to be able to detect when the user presses an arrow key (otherwise it just prints [[A, [[B, etc.). I know it's relatively easy (although somewhat more time-consuming) to detect keystrokes in noncanonical mode, but I've noticed that the bash shell detects... (4 Replies)
I'm learning off Linux (Ubuntu) right now. I want to move up to Unix, but I don't want to rush like I did when it came to Windows --> to Linux. What is the best Unix OS that fits in pretty well with Ubuntu.
In other words is there kind of an equal Linux with Unix?
Also what do I need to... (10 Replies)
I noticed my hostname is <my-full-name>s-macbook.local. I'm not sure exactly what information leaves the local network, and whether the hostname is included, but if it is, this would mean people on the Internet can look at my hostname and see who I am. Before anyone says that's not possible,... (4 Replies)
