NAME
       pnmsmooth - smooth out an image

SYNOPSIS
       pnmsmooth [-size width height] [-dump dumpfile] [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION
       Smooths out an image by replacing each pixel with the average of its width X height neighbors.  It is implemented as a C progam that gener-
       ates a PGM convolution matrix and then invokes pnmconvol.

OPTIONS
       -size width height
	      Specifies the size of the convolution matrix.  Default size is a 3x3 matrix.  Width and height sizes must be odd.  Maximum  size	of
	      convolution  matrix  is  limited	by  the maximum value for a pixel such that (width * height * 2) must not exceed the maximum pixel
	      value.

       -dump dumpfile
	      Generates and saves the convolution file only.  Use of this option does not invoke pnmconvol.
