NAME

   xwdtopnm - convert an X11 or X10 window dump file to a PNM im-
age

SYNOPSIS

   xwdtopnm [-verbose] [xwdfile]

DESCRIPTION

   This program is part of Netpbm.

   xwdtopnm reads an X11 or X10 window dump  file  as  input  and
produces a PNM
   image  as  output. The type of the output image depends on the
input file - if
   it's black and white, the output is PBM.  If	 it's  grayscale,
the output is
   PGM.	 Otherwise, it's PPM. The program tells you which type it
is writing.

   Using  this	program, you can convert anything you can display
on an X
   workstation's  screen  into	a PNM image. Just display whatev-
er you're
   interested in, run the xwd program to capture the contents  of
the window,
   run	it  through  xwdtopnm,	and then use pamcut to select the
part you want.

OPTIONS

   -verbose
	  This option causes xwdtopnm to display  handy	 informa-
tion about the
	  input image and the conversion process
