Synopsis
pbmtoxbm
[pbmfile]
Description
This program is part of Netpbm(1).
pbmtoxbm reads a PBM image as input and produces an X10 or X11 bitmap as output.
Options
In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (most notably -quiet, see Common Options ), pbmtoxbm recognizes the following command line options:
- -x10
This option causes pbmtoxbm to generate the X10 version of XBM.
You may not specify this with -x11.
This option was new with Netpbm 10.37 (December 2006). Before that, use pbmtox10bm instead.
- -x11
This option causes pbmtoxbm to generate the X11 version of XBM.
You may not specify this with -x10.
The X11 version is the default, so this option has no effect.
This option was new with Netpbm 10.37 (December 2006).
