This program converts an RLE(5)
file to a Sun raster file.
-o outfile.ras
If specified, the output will be
written to this file. If outfile.ras is "-", or if it is not specified,
the output will be written to the standard output stream. The input file
should have either 1 or 3 channels, and may have an alpha channel. Depending
on the input, either a gray scale or color raster file will be generated.
If an alpha channel is present, a 32 bit raster will always be made. Since
the Sun raster format and RLE disagree on the origin location, the image
is automatically flipped to maintain its orientation.
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 programs mcut(1)
, rlequant(1)
,
to8(1)
, and tobw(1)
will make a 1 channel RLE image from an 3 channel (full
color) image. If the original image also had an alpha channel, rleswap
-d -1 can be used to delete it.
