getren - get RLE images to an HP98721 ("Renaissance") display
getren
[ -p xpos ypos ] [ -O ] [ -P xoff yoff ] [ -d display ] [ -x driver ] [ infile
]
This program displays an RLE(5)
file on an HP 98721 "Renaissance"
display configured with at least 24 bits per pixel. If a color map exists
in the file, it is loaded into the display, otherwise a linear map is used.
- -p xpos ypos
- position the image at xpos, ypos.
- -P xoff yoff
- Offset
the image position by xoff yoff
- -O
- Don't clear the screen (overlay mode)
- -d display
- Gives the name of the display device to which the image is to
be displayed. The default is "/dev/hp98721".
- -x driver
- Gives the name of
the device driver to be used to communicate with the display device. The
default is "hp98721".
- infile
- The input will be read from this file. If infile
is "-" or is not specified, the input will be read from the standard input
stream.

The program assumes a full 24 bit Renaissance display. The HP
graphics library supports automatically dithering for displays with fewer
bitplanes, but getren ignores this.
The device and driver names are compiled in as "/dev/hp98721" and "hp98721",
respectively. This may need changing on systems configured differently
(in particular, systems with the Renaissance as their sole display may
use a different name for the device).
