AUTHOR

REQUIREMENTS
  Any Amiga® (compatible) computer with at least OS2.04 and 68020+ cpu.


DESCRIPTION
  dttoppm is a very simple program to convert any picture file into a PPM file,
  if a datatype is available for that picture file. V43 datatypes are supported
  to be able to convert 24bit file formats.


USAGE
  dttoppm uses this argument template: IN/A,OUT

  IN/A: the file you wish to convert

  OUT: the output filename. Standard output will be used if this argument is
    omitted. Thus dttoppm is able to work as a filter together with pipes.


HISTORY
  37.2 (01.04.2006):
    - ported dttoppm to OS4
    - uses PDTM_READPIXELARRAY to get the actual graphic data instead of poking
      around in bitmaps.

  37.1 (08.09.2003):
    - just a re-release of V1.0 with just one big change: the whole program
      has been reimplemented in C instead of Oberon. Additionally I included
      the complete source code in C for educational purposes.
