ppmmake(1)

NAME

   ppmmake - create a pixmap of a specified size and color

SYNOPSIS

   ppmmake color width height

DESCRIPTION

   Produces a portable pixmap of the specified color, width, and height.

   The color can be specified in five ways:

   o      A name, assuming that a pointer to an X11-style color names file
          was compiled in.

   o      An X11-style hexadecimal specifier: rgb:r/g/b, where r g  and  b
          are each 1- to 4-digit hexadecimal numbers.

   o      An  X11-style decimal specifier: rgbi:r/g/b, where r g and b are
          floating point numbers between 0 and 1.

   o      For  backwards  compatibility,  an   old-X11-style   hexadecimal
          number: #rgb, #rrggbb, #rrrgggbbb, or #rrrrggggbbbb.

   o      For  backwards  compatibility, a triplet of numbers separated by
          commas: r,g,b, where r  g  and  b  are  floating  point  numbers
          between  0 and 1.  (This style was added before MIT came up with
          the similar rgbi style.)
