gimplut - Man Page

gimplut [-h] [-o path] [-s samples] [-v] [-V] [path]

The gimplut utility converts gradient files from the GIMP, the GNU Image Manipulation Program, to a binary lookup table format commonly used by medical imaging software; in particular the (X)Medcon package​.

The LUT format consists of n red, n green and n blue bytes, interpreted as integers from 0 to 255​.

The program will read from stdin if a file is not specified as the final argument, and write to stdout if the --output option is not specified​.

--backtrace-file path

Specify a file to which to write a formatted backtrace​. The file will only be created if there is a backtrace created, typically when an error occurs​.

--backtrace-format format

Specify the format of the backtrace written to the files specified by --backtrace-file, one of plain, xml or json​.

-h,  --help

Brief help​.

-o,  --output path

Write the output to path, rather than stdout​.

-s,  --samples number

Use the specified number of samples rather than 256​.

-v,  --verbose

Verbose operation​.

-V,  --version

Version information​.

The alpha channel of the input is completely ignored in the output​.

At some point in the future the functionality of this program will be transferred to the svgx(1) program​.
