pnmenlarge(1) General Commands Manual pnmenlarge(1)NAME
pnmenlarge - read a portable anymap and enlarge it N times
SYNOPSIS
pnmenlarge N [pnmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable anymap as input. Replicates its pixels N times, and produces a portable anymap as output.
pnmenlarge can only enlarge by integer factors. The slower but more general pnmscale can enlarge or reduce by arbitrary factors, and pbm-
reduce can reduce by integer factors, but only for bitmaps.
If you enlarge by a factor of 3 or more, you should probably add a pnmsmooth step; otherwise, you can see the original pixels in the
resulting image.

fstopgm - convert a Usenix FaceSaver(tm) file into a portable graymap
SYNOPSIS
fstopgm [fsfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a Usenix FaceSaver(tm) file as input. Produces a portable graymap as output.
FaceSaver(tm) files sometimes have rectangular pixels. While fstopgm won't re-scale them into square pixels for you, it will give you the
precise pnmscale command that will do the job. Because of this, reading a FaceSaver(tm) image is a two-step process. First you do:
fstopgm > /dev/null
This will tell you whether you need to use pnmscale. Then use one of the following pipelines:
fstopgm | pgmnorm
fstopgm | pnmscale -whatever | pgmnorm
To go to PBM, you want something more like one of these:
fstopgm | pnmenlarge 3 | pgmnorm | pgmtopbm
fstopgm | pnmenlarge 3 | pnmscale <whatever> | pgmnorm | pgmtopbm
You want to enlarge when going to a bitmap because otherwise you lose information; but enlarging by more than 3 does not look good.

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.
# When the shell exits, append to the history file instead of overwriting it
