4769.0. "Anybody have the Amiga PBMPlus?" by BAGELS::BRANNON (Dave Brannon) Fri May 24 1991 18:10

    
    I keep seeing claims about the wonders of PBMPLUS on the usenet.
    Recently there was mention of the Amiga port of it, available for
    FTPing.  
    
    Has any anybody already got this, and if so, does it do IFF ham
    input or output?

4769.1Nope, but will look aroundCGOFS::DREWSteve DrewSat May 25 1991 00:4813
  I have'nt seen the Amiga port yet, but should not be too much effort
  to do so. PPM does read/write IFF even 24 bit files. The ham support only
  creates noninterlaced ham pics (ie 320x200). I use PPM alot under ultrix,
  and have good results using it to convert from 24 bit files (generated by
  Imagine or DCTV) to GIF or any other format that displays nicely on
  a workstation. In fact I've generated 1024 x 800 pics in 24 bit format
  using Imagine and then viewed them on a color workstation via PPM, Nice!

  The only problem I see with a Amiga version is needing lots of memory.

   Steve.

    Anybody have any docs on PBMplus?  I trying to use the Amiga version
    and the VMS version and am having a few problems.  I like to
    understand what the various command sw do for the various programs.
    
    If you have a doc set please upload.
    
    Thanks,
