       between an option name and its value.

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       ppmmake produces a PPM image of the specified color, width, height, and maxval.

       Specify  the  color  (color) as described for the argument of the pnm_parsecolor() library
       routine ⟨libnetpbm_image.html#colorname⟩ .

EXAMPLES

           ppmmake red 50 50

           ppmmake rgb:ff/80/80 50 100 -maxval=5

OPTIONS

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

       -maxval=maxval
                   The maxval for the generated image.  Default is 255.

                   This option did not exist before June 2002.  Before, the maxval was
                   always 255.
