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.
