NAME

       pamtouil - convert a PNM or PNM/transparency image into a Motif UIL icon file

SYNOPSIS

       pamtouil [-name=uilname] [pamfile]

       You  may  abbreviate  any  option  to its shortest unique prefix.  You may use two hyphens
       instead of one to delimit an option.  You may separate  an  option  from  its  value  with
       whitespace instead of =.

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pamtouil  reads  a PNM or PAM image as input and produces a Motif UIL icon file as output.
       If  the  input  is  PAM,  it  may  be  either  a  regular  grayscale  or  color  image  or
       grayscale+transparency  or color+transparency.  Where the transparency channel is present,
       pamtouil renders pixels that are more than half transparent as transparent in the output.

       In the UIL's colormap, pamtouil uses the color names from the RGB database -- the same one
       ppmmake(1)  uses.   Where  a  color  in the input does not exactly match one of the colors
       named in the RGB database, pamtouil uses the closest color named in the RGB database.

OPTIONS

       In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (most notably -quiet,
       see
        Common  Options  ⟨index.html#commonoptions⟩  ), pamtouil recognizes the following command
       line option:

       -name
                   Allows you to specify the prefix string which is printed in the
                   resulting UIL output.  If not specified, will default to the filename
                   (without extension) of the ppmfile argument.  If -name is not
                   specified and no ppmfile is specified (i.e. piped input), the
                   prefix string will default to the string "noname".

HISTORY

       Before May 2002, pamtouil was called ppmtouil and had no way to specify transparency.
