NAME

       sbigtopgm - convert an SBIG CCDOPS file to PGM

SYNOPSIS

       sbigtopgm

       [sbigfile]

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       sbigtopgm  reads  an  image file in the native format used by the Santa Barbara Instrument
       Group (SBIG) astronomical CCD cameras, and produces a PGM  image  as  output.   Additional
       information  on  SBIG cameras and documentation of the file format is available at the Web
       site, http://www.sbig.com/ ⟨http://www.sbig.com/⟩ .

       sbigtopgm recognizes some variation on the documented SBIG Type 3 format.  It  allows  any
       capitalization  in  the  header.  It ignores all whitespace in the header except newlines.
       So a header line can end in newline, CRLF, or the bizarre LF-CR actually required  by  the
       spec.

OPTIONS

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