NAME
       pbmclean - flip isolated pixels in portable bitmap

SYNOPSIS
       pbmclean [-minneighbors=N] [-black|-white] [pbmfile]

       You  can	 use  the minimum unique abbreviation of the options.  You can
       use two hyphens instead of one.	You can separate an option  name  from
       its value with white space instead of an equals sign.

       Before December 2001, pbmclean accepted -N instead of -minneighbors.


DESCRIPTION
       pbmclean	 cleans	 up a PBM image of random specs.  It reads a PBM image
       as input and outputs a PBM that is the same as the  input  except  with
       every pixel which has less than N identical neighbours inverted.

       The default for N is 1 - only completely isolated pixels are flipped.

       (A value of N greater than 8 generates a completely inverted image (but
       use pnminvert to do that) -- or a completely white or completely	 black
       image with the -black or -white option).

       pbmclean	 considers the area beyond the edges of the image to be white.
       (This matters when you consider pixels right on the edge of the image).

       You can use pbmclean to clean up "snow" on bitmap images.

OPTIONS
       -black

       -white Flip pixels of the specified color.  By default, if you  specify
	      neither  -black  nor -white, pbmclean flips both black and white
	      pixels which do not have sufficient identical neighbors.	If you
	      specify  -black, pbmclean leaves the white pixels alone and just
	      erases isolated black pixels.  Vice versa for -white.   You  may
	      specify  both  -black  and -white to get the same as the default
	      behavior.
