PPMTOTGA(1)

💅 PPMTOTGA 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Ppmtotga User Manual — yeah yeah, it lives in section 1, General Commands Manual, whatever, the important part is it's an iconic little Netpbm page and we're gonna read it together 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

ppmtotga — bestie… it's been replaced by pamtotga 😭

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So, real talk. This program is part of Netpbm(1). It's giving legacy. It's giving "my older sister's account." 👑

ppmtotga was replaced in Netpbm 10.6 (July 2002) by pamtotga(1). Like, that's not a drill, that's a whole era ago. The torch was passed. Periodt. 💅

But here's the slay part: pamtotga is backward compatible with ppmtotga, so nothing breaks, no cap. AND on top of that it also recognizes PAM input — including PAM with a transparency channel. The way that it just does more?? Obsessed. ✨🦋

fr fr though: if you came here looking for the actual current tool, go say hi to pamtotga(1). This one is the throwback. 🙈
