PGMTOFS(1)
π pgmtofs β the Pgmtofs User Manual, but make it a group chat π
okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, because today we're talking about pgmtofs β a lil baby program from the General Commands Manual section of the Netpbm fam. she's small. she's simple. she does exactly one thing and she does it cute. periodt. π
β¨ NAME β¨
pgmtofs β convert PGM image to Usenix FaceSaver(tm) format π¦
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
pgmtofs
[pgmfile]
that's it. that's the whole vibe. no flags, no drama. π«Ά
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
so first things first: this program is part of Netpbm(1). she's one of the squad. π
here's the tea β β pgmtofs reads a PGM image as input, and then produces Usenix FaceSaver(tm) format as output. that's the whole glow-up. PGM goes in, FaceSaver(tm) comes out. no cap. β¨
and okay, a lil trademark moment for legal reasons because we respect intellectual property in this house π: FaceSaver is a registered trademark of Metron Computerware Ltd. of Oakland, CA. iconic of them, honestly.
β¨ OPTIONS β¨
ngl bestie, there are no command line options defined specifically for pgmtofs. like, zero. she's a minimalist. she doesn't need extras. π
BUT β and this is the important part β she does recognize the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm. so if you're looking for those, go check out Common Options. she speaks the family language. π
