.SH DESCRIPTION
|
| 20 |
|
|
.I Meta2tga
|
| 21 |
|
|
reads each metafile
|
| 22 |
|
|
.I file
|
| 23 |
|
|
in sequence and converts it to a compressed, color-mapped Targa file.
|
| 24 |
|
|
The result is sent to the standard output (which must be redirected)
|
| 25 |
|
|
unless the
|
| 26 |
|
|
.I \-o
|
| 27 |
|
|
option is used.
|
| 28 |
|
|
The argument to the
|
| 29 |
|
|
.I \-o
|
| 30 |
|
|
option specifies the base file name, to which a page number and ".tga" is added
|
| 31 |
|
|
as a suffix.
|
| 32 |
|
|
Note that this option must be present in order to produce more than a single
|
| 33 |
|
|
page of output.
|
| 34 |
|
|
.PP
|
| 35 |
|
|
The default output resolution is 400 by 400, but a different resolution
|
| 36 |
|
|
can be given with the
|
| 37 |
|
|
.I \-x
|
| 38 |
|
|
and
|
| 39 |
|
|
.I \-y
|
| 40 |
|
|
options.
|
| 41 |
|
|
.PP
|
| 42 |
|
|
The
|
| 43 |
|
|
.I \-m
|
| 44 |
|
|
option can be used to set a minimum value for the line radius in pixels.
|
| 45 |
|
|
This may be helpful for improving the readability of high resolution output.
|
| 46 |
|
|
The default value is 0, which allows lines of one pixel thickness.
|
| 47 |
|
|
.PP
|
| 48 |
|
|
If the option
|
| 49 |
|
|
.I \-c
|
| 50 |
|
|
is specified, the input files are only conditioned for output, ie.
|
| 51 |
|
|
expanded (see pexpand).
|
| 52 |
|
|
This is useful if many copies of the same output is desired.
|
| 53 |
|
|
If the option
|
| 54 |
|
|
.I \-r
|
| 55 |
|
|
is instead specified, the input is assumed already to be conditioned.
|
| 56 |
|
|
If no input files are specified, the standard input is read.
|
