Windows .ico file
SYNOPSISppmtowinicon [-andpgms] [-output output.ico] [ppmfiles...]
DESCRIPTION
Reads one or more portable pixmaps as input. Produces a
Microsoft Windows .ico file as output.
A Windows icon contains 1 or more images, at different
resolutions and color depths.
Microsoft recommends including at least the following for
mats in each icon.
16 x 16 - 4 bpp
32 x 32 - 4 bpp
48 x 48 - 8 bpp
Default I/O is STDIN/STDOUT.
OPTIONS-andpgms
If this option is given, every other file is read
as an alpha mask to be used by windows for
transparancy data for the previous image. (These
are set to blank by default). The alpha mask is a
PGM image, where any value less than or equal to
the maxval means transparent, and anything greater
than the maxval means opaque. Note that as with
all Netpbm programs, you may use a PBM file here
and it will be used as if it were the equivalent
PGM.
-output output.ico
File to write. By default, the icon is written to
stdout.
