ppmmake - create a pixmap of a specified size and color |
ppmmake color width height |
Produces a portable pixmap of the specified color, width, and height. The color can be specified in five ways: |
o |
A name, assuming that a pointer to an X11-style color names file was compiled in. |
||
o |
An X11-style hexadecimal specifier: rgb:r/g/b, where r g and b are each 1- to 4-digit hexadecimal numbers. |
||
o |
An X11-style decimal specifier: rgbi:r/g/b, where r g and b are floating point numbers between 0 and 1. |
||
o |
For backwards compatibility, an old-X11-style hexadecimal number: #rgb, #rrggbb, #rrrgggbbb, or #rrrrggggbbbb. |
||
o |
For backwards compatibility, a triplet of numbers separated by commas: r,g,b, where r g and b are floating point numbers between 0 and 1. (This style was added before MIT came up with the similar rgbi style.) |
