NAME
       pnmindex - build a visual index of a bunch of anymaps

SYNOPSIS
       pnmindex  [-size  N] [-across N] [-colors N] [-black] pnm-
       file ...

DESCRIPTION
       This script makes small versions of a  bunch  of  anymaps,
       adds  labels,  and  concatenates them together into a col-
       lage.

OPTIONS
       -size  Controls how big each image becomes; the default is
              100x100.

       -across
              Controls  how  many  images  are  in  each row; the
              default is 6.

       -colors
              Controls how many colors the final index gets quan-
              tized to, if quantization is necessary; the default
              is 256.

       -black Controls the  color  of  the  padding  between  the
              images;  normally  it's  white  and  the labels are
              black lettering on white background, but the -black
              flag reverses this.

BUGS
       It's very slow.

       It's a csh script.  Csh scripts are not portable to System
       V.  Scripts in general are not portable to non-Unix  envi-
       ronments.
