- Reads a portable pixmap as input. Produces X11 pixmap (XPM) as output.
-
- If the program was compiled with an rgb database specified, and a RGB
- value from the ppm input matches a RGB value from the database, then the
- corresponding color name mnemonic is printed in the XPM's colormap. If
- no rgb database was compiled in, or if the RGB values don't match, then
- the color will be printed with the #RGB, #RRGGBB, #RRRGGGBBB, or
- #RRRRGGGGBBBB hexadecimal format.

- ---nnnaaammmeee
- Allows you to specify the prefix string which is printed in the
- resulting XPM output. If not specified, will default to the
- filename (without extension) of the ppmfile argument. If ---nnnaaammmeee is
- not specified and no ppmfile is specified (i.e. piped input), the
- prefix string will default to the string "noname".
-
- All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.

- To convert the file "dot" (found in /usr/include/X11/bitmaps), from xbm
- to xpm one could specify
-
- xbmtopbm dot | ppmtoxpm -name dot
-
- BBBUUUGGGSSS
- An option to match the closest (rather than exact) color name mnemonic
- from the rgb text would be a desirable enhancement.
-
- Truncation of the least significant bits of a RGB value may result in
- nonexact matches when performing color name mnemonic lookups.
