NAME

pgmtolispm - convert a portable graymap into Lisp Machine format

SYNOPSIS

pgmtolispm [pgmfile]

DESCRIPTION

Reads a portable graymap as input. Produces a Lisp Machine bitmap as output. This is the file format read by the tv:read-bit-array-file function on TI Explorer and Symbolics lisp machines. Given a pgm (instead of a pbm) a multi-plane image will be output. This is probably not useful unless you have a color lisp machine. Multi-plane bitmaps on lisp machines are color; but the lispm image file format does not include a color map, so we must treat it as a graymap instead. This is unfortu­ nate.

SEE ALSO

lispmtopgm(1), pgm(5) BUGS Output width is always rounded up to the nearest multiple of 32; this might not always be what you want, but it probably is (arrays which are not modulo 32 cannot be passed to the Lispm BITBLT function, and thus cannot eas­ ily be displayed on the screen). No color.
