NAME
       ppmtv - make a PPM image look like taken from an American TV

SYNOPSIS
       ppmtv dimfactor

       [ppmfile]

DESCRIPTION
       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       ppmtv reads a PPM image as input and dims every other row of image data
       down by the specified dim factor.  This factor may be in the  range  of
       0.0 (the alternate lines are totally black) to 1.0 (original image).

       This creates an effect similar to what I've once seen in the video clip
       'You could be mine' by Guns'n'Roses.  In the scene  I'm	talking	 about
       you  can	 see  John  Connor on his motorbike, looking up from the water
       trench (?)  he's standing in.  While the camera pulls back,  the	 image
       gets  'normal'  by  brightening	up the alternate rows of it. I thought
       this would be an interesting effect to try in MPEG. I did not yet check
       this out, however.  Try for yourself.
