✨ NAME ✨

bioradtopgm — bestie, this is the lil glow-up tool that converts a Biorad confocal file into a PGM image 💅

(Also hi, you're reading the Bioradtopbm User Manual, section 1, that's the manual name, we're official now 🎀)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bioradtopgm [-image#] [imagedata]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so first things first: this program is part of Netpbm(1). One of the family, we love a nepo baby 🫶

bioradtopgm reads a Biorad confocal file as its input and produces a PGM image as its output. That's it, that's the whole job, and it ate.

If the resulting image comes out upside down (undignified, honestly 😭), just run it through pamflip -tb. Fixed. Slay.

💖 OPTIONS 💖

So besides the options that are common to all programs based on libnetpbm — most notably -quiet, see Common Options — bioradtopgm recognizes exactly one extra command line option:

  • -image# — A Biorad image file can lowkey contain more than one image, and this option is how you say which one you want extracted. Only one at a time, bestie, we don't multitask here 🙈 The first image in the file has number zero. And if you don't supply an image number at all? Then it just prints out info about the image size and how many images are in the input, and produces no output. Just vibes and metadata, no picture. Periodt.
