NAME
       macptopbm - convert a MacPaint file into a portable bitmap

SYNOPSIS
       macptopbm [-extraskip N] [macpfile]

DESCRIPTION
       Reads a MacPaint file as input.	Produces a portable bitmap as output.

OPTIONS
       -extraskip
	      This flag is to get around a problem with some methods of transā€
	      ferring files from the Mac world to the  Unix  world.   Most  of
	      these  methods  leave the Mac files alone, but a few of them add
	      the "finderinfo" data onto the front of  the  Unix  file.	  This
	      means  an	 extra	128  bytes to skip over when reading the file.
	      The symptom to watch for is that the resulting  PBM  file	 looks
	      shifted  to  one side.  If you get this, try -extraskip 128, and
	      if that still doesn't look right try another value.

       All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
