11 This program is part of Netpbm(1).

13 pnmcomp was obsoleted by pamcomp(1), introduced with Netpbm 10.21
14 (March 2004). pamcomp is backward compatible with pnmcomp, plus adds
15 many additional functions. Among this is the ability to process PAM
16 images, including those with transparency channels.
17
18 pnmcomp remained in the Netpbm package until Netpbm 10.68 (September
19 2014) because of hopes that it had fewer bugs than pamcomp because of
20 its age. But now it would just be clutter.
21
22 In Netpbm before 10.21, use the manual for pamcomp with pnmcomp. Fea‐
23 tures that are in pamcomp but not pnmcomp are indicated by statements
24 that they didn't exist before 10.21.
