NAME

       pnmfile - describe a portable anymap

SYNOPSIS

       pnmfile [-allimages] [pnmfile ...]

DESCRIPTION

       Reads one or more Netpbm files as input.  Writes out short descriptions
       of the image type, size, etc.  This is mostly for use in shell scripts,
       so the format is not particularly pretty.

OPTIONS

       -allimages
              Describe  every  image in each input file.  Without this option,
              pnmfile describes only the first image in each input file.  Note
              that  before  July  2000, a file could not contain more than one
              image and many programs ignore all but the first.
