NAME
       xwdtopnm  -  convert  a X11 or X10 window dump file into a
       portable anymap

SYNOPSIS
       xwdtopnm [xwdfile]

DESCRIPTION
       Reads a X11 or X10 window dump file as input.  Produces  a
       portable  anymap  as  output.  The type of the output file
       depends on the input file - if it's black & white,  a  pbm
       file is written, else if it's grayscale a pgm file, else a
       ppm file.  The program tells you which type it is writing.

       Using this program, you can convert anything on an X work-
       station's screen into an anymap.   Just  display  whatever
       you're  interested in, do an xwd, run it through xwdtopnm,
       and then use pnmcut to select the part you want.

BUGS
       I haven't tested this tool with very many  configurations,
       so  there  are  probably  bugs.  Please let me know if you
       find any.
