XWDTOPBM
NAME
xwdtopbm - convert an X11 or X10 window dump file into a portable
bitmap
SYNOPSIS
xwdtopbm [xwdfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads an X11 or X10 window dump file as input. Produces a portable
bitmap as output.
Using this program, you can convert anything on an X workstation's
screen into a pbm bitmap. Just display whatever you're interested in,
do an xwd, run it through xwdtopbm, and then use pnmcut to select the
part you want.
Note that this tool only works for monochrome dump files.
BUGS
I haven't tested this tool with very many configurations, so there are
probably bugs. Please let me know if you find any.
