NAME

6       pgmtolispm - convert a PGM image to Lisp Machine format

SYNOPSIS

10       pgmtolispm
11
12       [pgmfile]
13

DESCRIPTION

16       This program is part of Netpbm(1).
17
18       pgmtolispm  reads a PGM image as input and produces a Lisp Machine bit‐
19       map as output.
20
21       This is the file format read by the tv:read-bit-array-file function  on
22       TI Explorer and Symbolics lisp machines.
23
24       Given a PGM (instead of a PBM), pgmtolispm outputs a multi-plane image.
25       This is probably not useful unless you have a color lisp machine.
26
27       Multi-plane bitmaps on lisp machines are color;  but  the  lispm  image
28       file  format  does  not  include  a color map, so we must treat it as a
29       graymap instead.  This is unfortunate.

LIMITATIONS

37       Output width is always rounded up to the nearest multiple of  32;  this
38       might not always be what you want, but it probably is (arrays which are
39       not modulo 32 cannot be passed to the Lispm BITBLT function,  and  thus
40       cannot easily be displayed on the screen).
41
42       No color.
