✨ pbmtoxbm — bestie edition ✨

ok so this page is from the Pbmtoxbm User Manual, section 1 of the General Commands Manual, and it's literally just: turn a PBM into an X11 bitmap. that's the whole vibe. 💅

💖 NAME 💖

pbmtoxbm — convert a PBM image to an X11 bitmap

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

pbmtoxbm

[{-x10|-x11}]

[pbmfile]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so first thing, bestie: this program is part of Netpbm(1). it's in the family, it belongs. 🫶

pbmtoxbm reads a PBM image as input and produces an X10 or X11 bitmap as output. that's it. that's the whole job. iconic, honestly. ✨

🦋 OPTIONS 🦋

so besides the options that are common to all programs based on libnetpbm — most notably -quiet, see Common Options — pbmtoxbm also recognizes these command line options, and here they are, no gatekeeping: 💖

  • -x10 — this one makes pbmtoxbm generate the X10 version of XBM. queen behavior.
⚠️ you may not specify this together with -x11. pick a lane, babe. 💀

this option was new with Netpbm 10.37 (December 2006). before that? you had to use pbmtox10bm instead. the struggle was real. 😭

  • -x11 — this one makes pbmtoxbm generate the X11 version of XBM.
⚠️ you may not specify this together with -x10. again. one or the other. ✋

the X11 version is the default, so ngl this option has no effect. it's giving decorative. it's still valid though, it's just standing there looking pretty. 💅

this option was new with Netpbm 10.37 (December 2006).
