NAME

ppmdim - dim a portable pixmap down to total blackness

SYNOPSIS

ppmdim dimfactor [ppmfile]

DESCRIPTION

Reads a portable pixmap as input. Diminishes its bright­ ness by the specified dimfactor down to total blackness. The dimfactor may be in the range from 0.0 (total black­ ness, deep night, nada, null, nothing) to 1.0 (original picture's brightness). As pnmgamma does not do the brightness correction in the way I wanted it, this small program was written. ppmdim is similar to ppmbrighten , but not exactly the same.
