💖 qoitopam 💖

okay so bestie, you've landed on the Qoitopam User Manual, section 1 of the General Commands Manual — and she's here to take your QOI pics and turn them into Netpbm. no cap, that's the whole job. 🌈✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

pamtoqoi — Convert QOI format (Quite OK Image format) to Netpbm.

fr fr the NAME line up there really does say pamtoqoi and not qoitopam 💀 i'm just the messenger, i don't make the rules 🙈

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

qoitopam [qoifile]

and like, the option rules on this page are soooo forgiving, she's literally the chillest:

  • All options can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
  • You may use two hyphens instead of one.
  • You may separate an option name and its value with white space instead of an equals sign.

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

so first thing, bestie: this program is part of Netpbm(1). she's got a whole friend group. 👑

here's the tea: qoitopam reads a QOI image from standard input and converts it to a Netpbm image written to standard output. in through one door, out through the other, iconic behavior. 💅

for the QOI specification and details, see the QOI web site. (iykyk 🦋)

and if you ever need to go the other way — like a little round trip, a little reverse card — use pamtoqoi(1) to convert a Netpbm image to QOI format. she's the mirror bestie. 🪞

oh and lowkey important: input is from Standard Input if you don't specify the input file qoifile. so if you say nothing, she'll just wait for you to pipe something in. main character energy is optional. 🎀

💅 OPTIONS 💅

okay bestie, prepare yourself, because the options list is... short. the only options are those common to all programs based on libnetpbm, most notably:

  • -quiet — see Common Options for the deets.

that's it. that's the list. she's low maintenance. 🙈✨

⭐ HISTORY ⭐
