DESCRIPTION

17       This program is part of Netpbm(1).
18
19       pamtable  prints  the  raster of a Netpbm image as a table of numerical
20       sample values.  For example,  a  5-pixel  wide,  2-pixel  high  rainbow
21       (black, red, green, blue, white) PPM image with maxval 255 would appear
22       as follows:
23
24
25
26               0   0   0|255   0   0|  0 255   0|  0   0 255|255 255 255
27               0   0   0|255   0   0|  0 255   0|  0   0 255|255 255 255

32       If you care to see only certain rows or columns, use pamcut  to  filter
33       the input.
34
35       If  you  care  to see only certain planes, use pamchannel to filter the
36       input.
37
38       pamtable prints vertical bars between tuples, unless there is only  one
39       sample  per  tuple,  in which case it prints a single space between tu‐
40       ples.
41
42       pamtable prints a single space between samples within a tuple.
43
44       For each sample, pamtable prints the numerical value  from  the  Netpbm
45       image,  uninterpreted.  It prints it in decimal, right justified in the
46       minimum number of spaces required to print the maxval of the image.
47
48       If you want the samples to print more densely, use pamdepth  to  reduce
49       the maxval (thus making the decimal numbers for the samples narrower).
50
51       The  less program (not part of Netpbm) is good for browsing through the
52       table.  Use its --chop-long-lines option and use cursor  movement  keys
53       to scroll around in the image.

ARGUMENTS

58       The only possible argument is the name of the file containing the input
59       Netpbm image.  This is optional; if you don't  specify  any  arguments,
60       the input comes from Standard Input.

OPTIONS

65       There  are  no  command line options defined specifically for pamtable,
66       but it recognizes the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
67       (See
68        Common Options ⟨index.html#commonoptions⟩ .)
