Write images or frames in OpenEXR format

Synopsis

pfsoutpfm (<file> [--frames <range>])  [<file>...]

Source pfs frames should be piped to the Standard Input. This command can handle both color (XYZ channels) and grayscale (Y channel) images.

Details on the format of the pattern file names, which are used for saving multiple frames, can be found in the manual page of pfsoutppm.
