NAME
       ilbmtoppm - convert an ILBM file into a PPM image

SYNOPSIS
       ilbmtoppm  [-ignore<chunkID>] [ -isham | -isnotham | -isehb | -isnotehb
       | -isdeep |  -isnotdeep  ]  [-cmaponly]  [-adjustcolors]  [-transparent
       color] [-maskfile filename [-verbose] [ILBMfile]

DESCRIPTION
       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       ilbmtoppm  reads  an IFF ILBM file as input and produces a PPM image as
       output.  ilbmtoppm can handle the following ILBM types:

       o      Normal ILBMs with 1-16 planes.

       o      Amiga Extra_Halfbrite (EHB)

       o      Amiga HAM with 3-16 planes.

       o      24 bit.

       o      Multiplatte (normal or HAM) pictures.

       o      Color map (BMHD + CMAP chunk only, nPlanes = 0).

       o      Unofficial direct color.  1-16 planes for each color component.

       ilbmtoppm uses these ILBM chunks: BMHD, CMAP,  CAMG  (only  HAM  &  EHB
       flags  used), PCHG, BODY unofficial DCOL chunk to identify direct color
       ILBM.  It ignores these chunks: GRAB, DEST,  SPRT,  CRNG,  CCRT,  CLUT,
       DPPV,  DRNG,  EPSF.   It  ignores, but displays in verbose mode, these:
       NAME, AUTH, (c), ANNO, DPI.  It skips chunks whose type it doesn't rec-
       ognize.

OPTIONS
       -transparent color
              This is the color that should "show through" in places where the
              image is transparent.

              color is like  the  argument  of  the  ppm_parsecolor()  library
              routine <libppm.html#colorname> .

       -verbose
              Give some information about the ILBM file.

       -ignore chunkID
              Skip  a  chunk.  chunkID is the 4-letter IFF chunk identifier of
              the chunk to be skipped.

       -isham | -isehb
              Treat the input file as a HAM or Extra_Halfbrite  picture,  even
              if  these flags are not set in the CAMG chunk (or if there is no
              CAMG chunk).

       -maskfile filename
              This names a file for  ilbmtoppm  to  create  with  the  image's
              transparency  mask.   The mask file is a PBM image which maps to
              the input image with white pixels representing transparent  pix-
              els in the image and black pixels representing opaque pixels.

              If  you  don't specfy this, or the image does not contain trans-
              parency information, ilbmtoppm does not create a mask file.

       -cmaponly
              With this option, ilbmtoppm generates a PPM of the ILBM's  color
              map, not the image itself.

              ilbmtoppm does the same thing even without -cmaponly if the ILBM
              is a pure color map stream (it  has  a  bitmap  header  with  an
              nplanes value of zero or has no BODY chunk.

       -adjustcolors
              If  all  colors  in the CMAP have a value of less then 16, ilbm-
              toppm assumes a 4-bit colormap and gives a warning.   With  this
              option the colormap is scaled to 8 bits.

LIMITATIONS
       The  multipalette PCHG BigLineChanges and Huffman decompression code is
       untested.
