NAME
       ppmtotga - convert portable pixmap into a TrueVision Targa
       file

SYNOPSIS
       ppmtotga [-mono|-cmap|-rgb] [-norle] [ppmfile]

DESCRIPTION
       Reads a portable pixmap as input.  Produces  a  TrueVision
       Targa file as output.

OPTIONS
       -mono  Forces  Targa  file to be of type 8 bit monochrome.
	      Input must be  a	portable  bitmap  or  a portable
	      graymap.

       -cmap  Forces Targa file to be of type 24 bit colormapped.
	      Input must be a portable bitmap, a portable graymap
	      or  a  portable  pixmap containing no more than 256
	      distinct colors.

       -rgb   Forces Targa file to be of  type	24  bit unmapped
	      color.

       -norle Disables	run-length  encoding,  in case you have a
	      Targa reader which can't	read  run-length  encoded
	      files.

       All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique pre-
       fix.  If no file type is specified the  most  highly  con-
       stained	compatible type is used, where monochrome is more
       constained than colormapped which is  in turn  more  con-
       stained than unmapped.

BUGS
       Does  not  support  all possible Targa file types.  Should
       really be in PNM, not PPM.
