NAME

       pamfile - describe a Netpbm (PAM or PNM) file

SYNOPSIS

       pamfile [-allimages] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION

       Reads one or more Netpbm files as input.  Writes out short descriptions of the image type,
       size, etc.  This is mostly for use in shell scripts, so the  format  is  not  particularly
       pretty.

OPTIONS

       -allimages
              Describe  every  image  in each input file.  Without this option, pamfile describes
              only the first image in each input file.  Note that before July 2000, a file  could
              not contain more than one image and many programs ignore all but the first.

SEE ALSO

       pam(5), file(1)
