NAME

       pnmsplit - split a multi-image portable anymap into multiple single-image files

SYNOPSIS

       pnmsplit [pnmfile[ output_file_pattern]]

DESCRIPTION

       Reads a Netpbm file as input.  Copies each image in the input into a separate file, in the same format.

       pnmfile  is  the  file  specification of the input file, or - to indicate Standard Input.  The default is
       Standard Input.

       output_file_pattern tells how to name the output files.  It is the file specification of the output file,
       except  that the first occurence of "%d" in it is replaced by the image sequence number in unpadded ASCII
       decimal, with the sequence starting at 0.  If there is no "%d" in the pattern, pnmsplit fails.

       The default output file pattern is "image%d".

       Note that to do the reverse operation (combining multiple single-image PNM files into a multi-image one),
       there is no special Netpbm program.  Just use cat.
