NAME

       pbmtomacp - convert a portable bitmap into a MacPaint file

SYNOPSIS

       pbmtomacp [-l left] [-r right] [-b bottom] [-t top] [pbmfile]

DESCRIPTION

       Reads  a  portable  bitmap  as  input.  If no input-file is given, standard input is assumed.  Produces a
       MacPaint file as output.

       The generated file is only the data fork of a picture.  You  will  need  a  program  such  as  mcvert  to
       generate  a  Macbinary or a BinHex file that contains the necessary information to identify the file as a
       PNTG file to MacOS.

OPTIONS

       Left, right, bottom & top let you define a square into the pbm file, that must be converted.  Default  is
       the  whole file.  If the file is too large for a MacPaint-file, the bitmap is cut to fit from ( left, top
       ).

BUGS

       The source code contains comments in a language other than English.
