15 This program is part of Netpbm(1).

17 This program is essentially obsolete; The newer winicontopam is better.

19 winicontoppm reads a Microsoft Windows .ico file and converts it to one
20 or more PPMs.
21
22 A Windows icon contains one or more images, at different resolutions
23 and color depths. Each image has an 'and' mask, which contains
24 transparancy data.
25
26 By default, the output goes to Standard Output. If you specify
27 ppmdestfile, output goes into one or more files named as follows. If
28 it's just one file (i.e. you specify the -multippm option or don't
29 specify -allicons), the file name is ppmdestfile.ppm. If it's multiple
30 files, their file names are ppmdestfile_1.ppm, ppmdestfile_2.ppm, etc.
31
32 When you specify the -writeands option, the file names above are modi‐
33 fied to include the string xor as in ppmdestfile_xor.ppm or ppmdest‐
34 file_xor_1.ppm.
35
36 winicontoppm can convert .ico images with 1, 4, 8, 24, or 32 bits per
37 pixel. Before Netpbm 10.15 (April 2003), it could not handle 24 and
38 32.

42 In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
43 (most notably -quiet, see
44 Common Options ⟨index.html#commonoptions⟩ ), winicontoppm recognizes
45 the following command line options:
46
47
48
49 -writeands
50 For each icon written, also write the 'and' (transparancy) mask
51 as a separate PBM file. It's name is of the form ppmdest‐
52 file_and.pbm or ppmdestfile_and_1.pbm.
53
54
55 -allicons
56 Extract all images from the .ico file.
57
58 If you specify neither this nor -bestqual, winicontoppm extracts
59 the first image.
60
61
62 -bestqual
63 Extract only the best quality (largest, then highest bpp) image
64 from the .ico file.
65
66 If you specify neither this nor -allicons, winicontoppm extracts
67 the first image.
68
69
70 -multippm
71 Write all PPMs to a single file.
