NAME

       pampick - pick images out of a multi-image Netpbm image stream

SYNOPSIS

       pampick

       image_sequence_number ...

       Minimum  unique  abbreviation of option is acceptable.  You may use double hyphens instead
       of single hyphen to denote options.  You may use white space in place of the  equals  sign
       to separate an option name from its value.

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pampick reads a PNM or PAM image stream as input.  It picks certain images from the stream
       and copies them to a new image stream on Standard Output.

       You  identify  the  images  to  pick  by  sequence  number  within   the   stream.    Each
       image_sequence_number is a decimal sequence number, with zero meaning the first image.

       The  arguments must be in increasing order, without duplicates.  The results are undefined
       if they are not.  (There are a number  of  enhancements  that  might  be  made  in  future
       releases  that  would  make  whatever pampick does today when you break this rule change).
       pampick outputs the images in the same order as they appear in the input.  If you  specify
       no  sequence  numbers,  pampick outputs nothing.  If you specify a sequence number that is
       beyond what is in the input, pampick fails with an error message to that effect.

       pampick always reads the entire input stream.  (This is helpful when the input stream is a
       pipe and whatever is feeding the pipe would be upset if it filled up or broke).

       To see how many images, and what kind, are in a stream, use pamfile.

       To extract all the images in a stream into separate named files, use pamsplit.

OPTIONS

       There  are no command line options defined specifically for pampick, but it recognizes the
       options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (See
        Common Options ⟨index.html#commonoptions⟩ .)
