NAME
       xvtoppm - convert from xv's .xvpics format to ppm

SYNOPSIS
       xvtoppm .xvpics/file

DESCRIPTION
       xvtoppm is a simple-minded script that converts xv's ``Visual
       Schnauzer'' files into the ppm format.  This makes it possible to use
       all those files to create a contact sheet without scaling down the
       original images again.  Check out icontact's -Z option which turns off
       scaling of the input files.  Also check out the -M option which will
       allow you to, say, double the size of each image.

SEE ALSO
       xv(1), icontact(1), ppm(1)

BUGS
       xvtoppm doesn't take into account all the information on the first line
       of the input files.  If the format ever changes from the ``P7 332''
       version currently in use, this program will fail.
