NAME

       xwdtopnm - convert a X11 or X10 window dump file into a portable anymap

SYNOPSIS

       xwdtopnm [xwdfile]

DESCRIPTION

       Reads  a X11 or X10 window dump file as input.  Produces a portable anymap as output.  The
       type of the output file depends on the input file - if it's black & white, a pbm  file  is
       written,  else if it's grayscale a pgm file, else a ppm file.  The program tells you which
       type it is writing.

       Using this program, you can convert anything on an X workstation's screen into an  anymap.
       Just  display  whatever you're interested in, do an xwd, run it through xwdtopnm, and then
       use pnmcut to select the part you want.

BUGS

       I haven't tested this tool with very many configurations,  so  there  are  probably  bugs.
       Please let me know if you find any.
