NAME
ppmrelief - compute a relief of a PPM image
SYNOPSIS
ppmrelief
[ppmfile]
DESCRIPTION
This program is part of Netpbm(1).
ppmrelief reads a PPM image as input, and writes a relief of that image
as a PPM image as output.
The relief process is described in "Beyond Photography" by Holzmann,
equation 3.19. It's a sort of edge-detection and is essentially a con-
volution with this matrix:
| 1 0 0 |
| 0 0 0 |
| 0 0 -1 |
OPTIONS
There are no command line options defined specifically for ppmrelief,
but it recognizes the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
(See ]8;;index.html#commonoptions\ Common Options]8;;\ .)
