description
Reads a
Microsoft Windows .ico file, converts it to one or more
ppms.
A Windows icon
contains 1 or more images, at different resolutions and
color depths. Each image has an ’and’ mask,
which contains transparancy data.
By default, the
output goes to Standard Output. If you specify
ppmdestfile, output goes into one or more files named
as follows. If it’s just one file (i.e. you specify
the -multippm option or don’t specify
-allicons), the file specification is
ppmdestfile.ppm. If it’s multiple files,
their file specifications are
ppmdestfile_1.ppm,
ppmdestfile_2.ppm, etc.
When you
specify the -writeands option, the filenames above
are modified to include the string xor as in
ppmdestfile_xor.ppm or
ppmdestfile_xor_1.ppm.
winicontoppm
can convert images with 1, 4, 8, 24 or 32 bits per pixel
(bpp).
options
-writeands
For each icon written, also
write the ’and’ (transparancy) mask as a
seperate PBM file. It’s name is of the form
ppmdestfile_and.pbm or
ppmdestfile_and_1.pbm.
-allicons
Extract all images from the
.ico file.
-bestqual
Extract only the best quality
(largest, then highest bpp) image from the .ico file.
-multippm
Write all ppms to a single
file.
