NAME
       ppmbrighten - replaced by pambrighten

DESCRIPTION
       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       Starting with Netpbm 10.86 (March 2019), ppmbrighten is obsolete.  Use pambrighten(1) instead.

       pambrighten  is	mostly	backward compatible with ppmbrighten.  You can use the pambrighten manual for ppmbrighten as
       long as you ignore features that were added after Netpbm 10.86.

       One way in which pambrighten is not backward compatible is that
	 pambrighten does not have a -normalize option.	 If you want
	 that function, use pnmnorm on the image before passing it to
	 pambrighten.

       Another backward incompatibility is that pambrighten produces the
	 same kind of output as the input, whereas ppmbrighten always
	 produces PPM.	If you need PPM output, pass the results through
	 ppmtoppm.

       ppmbrighten is currently implemented as a triviel program that
	 invokes pambrighten, pnmnorm, and ppmtoppm.
