Lispmtopgm User Manual(0)                            Lispmtopgm User Manual(0)



NAME
       lispmtopgm - convert a Lisp Machine bitmap file to PGM


SYNOPSIS
       lispmtopgm [lispmfile]


DESCRIPTION
       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       listpmfile  reads  a  Lisp  Machine  bitmap as input and produces a PGM
       image as output.

       This is the file format written by the tv:write-bit-array-file function
       on TI Explorer and Symbolics lisp machines.

       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
       monochrome instead and produce PGM.  This is unfortunate.


SEE ALSO
       pgmtolispm(1), pgm(1)


LIMITATIONS
       The Lispm bitmap file format is a bit quirky;  Usually the image in the
       file has its width rounded up to the next higher multiple  of  32,  but
       not  always.   If the width is not a multiple of 32, we don't deal with
       it properly, but because of the Lispm microcode, such arrays are proba-
       bly not image data anyway.

       Also,  the  Lispm code for saving bitmaps has a bug, in that if you are
       writing a bitmap which is not mod32 across, the file may  be  up  to  7
       bits  too  short!   They  round down instead of up, and we don't handle
       this bug gracefully.
