NAME
       pnmtorast - convert a portable pixmap into a Sun rasterfile

SYNOPSIS
       pnmtorast [-standard|-rle] [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION
       Reads a portable pixmap as input.  Produces a Sun rasterfile as output.

       Color  values in Sun rasterfiles are eight bits wide, so pnmtorast will
       automatically scale colors to have a maxval of 255.  An extra  pnmdepth
       step is not necessary.

OPTIONS
       The  -standard  flag  forces  the result to be in RT_STANDARD form; the
       -rle flag, RT_BYTE_ENCODED, which is smaller but, well, less  standard.
       The default is -rle.

       All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
