Converts a PPM file to 3DO format.

ppmto3DO [flags] <ppmimagefile> < 3DOimagefile>

Converts a file in portable pixmap (PPM) format to 3DO image format.

• -b pixels of the output image are in 5541 format, with the low bit of the blue component used as a corner weight

• -c output a 16-bit-per-pixel, non-LR-form image suitable for processing by makecel

• -d write to the output file a dynamic VDL containing a CLUT for each display line; default is no CLUT written

• -f write to the output file a fixed VDL containing a single CLUT for the image; default is no CLUT written

• -t N specify a color in the input image to be translated to transparent (zero) in the output image; N is a hexadecimal number representing a 16-bit, 555-RGB color value

• -v print total number of colors in output image

• -e N place entries in the generated CLUT beginning at index N; default is 0; the values supplied to -ce and -me must add to be 32 or less.

• -m N use at most N entries in the generated CLUT; default is 32

The following options specify how the colors entered in the generated CLUT are selected from the colors found in the input image (or a line of the input image, when -d is in effect):

• -s0 entries evenly distributed across the color space; default when -d is not in effect

• -s1 entries that are the most popular color values

• -s2 entries that represent approximately equal regions of the color space by population

• -s3 entries that represent subdivisions of longest intervals between color values

• -s4 entries that represent subdivisions of intervals containing the largest numbers of colors (population)

• -s5 entries that represent subdivisions of longest intervals based on color value weighted by population; default when -d is ineffect
