xwdtopnm(1)

NAME

   xwdtopnm - convert a X11 or X10 window dump file into a portable anymap

SYNOPSIS

   xwdtopnm [xwdfile]

DESCRIPTION

   Reads  a  X11  or  X10  window dump file as input.  Produces a portable
   anymap as output.  The type of the output file  depends  on  the  input
   file  -  if  it's  black  &  white, a pbm file is written, else if it's
   grayscale a pgm file, else a ppm file.  The  program  tells  you  which
   type it is writing.

   Using  this  program,  you  can  convert anything on an X workstation's
   screen into an anymap.  Just display whatever you're interested in,  do
   an xwd, run it through xwdtopnm, and then use pnmcut to select the part
   you want.

BUGS

   I haven't tested this tool with very many configurations, so there  are
   probably bugs.  Please let me know if you find any.
