NAME
       pnmtoxwd - convert a PNM into an X11 window dump

SYNOPSIS
       pnmtoxwd

       [-pseudodepth n]

       [-directcolor]

       [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION
       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pnmtoxwd	 reads	a  PNM	image  as input and produces an X11 window dump as output.  You can display this output with
       xwud.

       Normally, pnmtoxwd produces a StaticGray dump file for PBM and PGM files.  For PPM, it writes a PseudoColor dump file
       if there are up to 256 colors in the input, and a DirectColor dump file otherwise.

       In an X11 window dump file, various integers can be represented in either big endian (most significant byte first) or
       little endian code.  Those generated by pnmtoxwd are always big endian.

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

       -directcolor

	      Output in DirectColor format.

       -pseudodepth 1-16

	      Set the depth of PseudoColor dump in bits.  Values between 1 to 16 are accepted.	Default is 8 (for a  maximum
	      of 256 colors.)
