NAME
       pgmmake - create a PGM image of a specified gray level and dimensions

SYNOPSIS
       pgmmake [-maxval=maxval] graylevel width height

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

DESCRIPTION
       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pgmmake produces a PGM image of the specified gray level, width, height, and maxval.

       Specify the gray level (graylevel) as a decimal floating point number in the range [0, 1].  E.g. 1  is  white,  0  is
       black, and 0.5 is half luminosity gray.

EXAMPLES
	   pgmmake 1 50 50

	   pgmmake .2 50 100 -maxval=5

OPTIONS
       In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (most notably -quiet, see  Common Options ), pg‐
       mmake recognizes the following command line option:

       -maxval=maxval
		   The maxval for the generated image.	Default is 255.
