RLETORAW(1)            DragonFly General Commands Manual           RLETORAW(1)


NAME

       rletoraw - Convert RLE file to raw RGB form.


SYNOPSIS

       rletoraw [ -a ] [ -[Ns] ] [ -r ] [ -f header-size ] [ -t trailer-size ]
       [ -l left-scanline-pad ] [ -p scanline-pad [ -o outfile ] [ infile ]


DESCRIPTION

       This program converts an RLE(5) image to a raw RGB form.  The output
       file is normally a stream of pixels (RGBRGB...), in left-to-right,
       bottom-to-top order (this can be changed with the -N or -s flags).  The
       width and height of the input image will be printed on the standard
       error stream.


OPTIONS

       -a     If specified, an alpha channel will be written to the output
              file.  This is the last output channel, unless -r is specified,
              in which case it will be the first.

       -N     If specified, the output will be written in a non-interleaved
              order.  I.e., all the red pixels will be written first, then all
              the green pixels, etc.

       -s     If specified, the output will be written in a scanline-
              interleaved order.  I.e., all the red pixels for a scanline will
              be written, followed by all the green pixels for the scanline,
              etc.  The options -N and -s are mutually exclusive.

       -r     Reverse the order of the channels in the output.  I.e., output
              will be written ABGR instead of RGBA.

       -f header-size
              A header of this many zero bytes will be written to the output
              file.

       -t trailer-size
              A trailer of this many zero bytes will be written after the
              output file.

       -l left-scanline-pad
              The left (beginning) of each scanline will be padded with this
              many zero bytes.

       -p left-scanline-pad
              The right (end) of each scanline will be padded with this many
              zero bytes.

       -o outfile
              If specified, the output will be written to this file.  If
              outfile is "-", or if it is not specified, the output will be
              written to the standard output stream.

       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.

BUGS

       Basically handles input files with 1 or 3 channels (plus alpha).  Only
       the first channel of a 2 channel image will be written.

       The header, trailer, and pad options are of dubious utility.
