NAME

SYNOPSIS

10       ppmspread amount [ppmfile] [-randomseed=integer]

DESCRIPTION

15       This program is part of Netpbm(1).
16
17       ppmspread  reads  a  PPM  image as input and moves every pixel around a
18       random bit relative to its original position. amount determines by  how
19       many pixels a pixel is to be moved around at most.
20
21       Pictures  processed with this filter will seem to be somewhat dissolved
22       or unfocussed (although they appear more coarse than  images  processed
23       by something like pnmconvol).
24
25       The  randomness  in  the image is limited before Netpbm 10.37 (December
26       2006) -- if you run the program twice in the same second, you  may  get
27       identical output.

OPTIONS

32       In  addition  to  the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
33       (most notably -quiet, see
34        Common Options ⟨index.html#commonoptions⟩ ), ppmspread recognizes  the
35       following command line options:
36
37
38
39
40       -randomseed=integer
41              This  is the seed for the random number generator that generates
42              the pixels.
43
44              Use this to ensure you get the same image  on  separate  invoca‐
45              tions.
46
47              This option was new in Netpbm 10.94 (March 2021).
