NAME
       xwintoppm - dump an image of an X window

SYNOPSIS
       xwintoppm  [-debug]  [-help]  [-nobdrs]	[-out file] [-xy]
       [-frame] [-add value] [-root |  -id  id	|  -name  name	]
       [-icmap] [-screen] [-display display]

DESCRIPTION
       Xwintoppm  is  an  X Window System window dumping utility.
       Xwintoppm allows X users to store window images in  ppm(5)
       format.	This  file  can	 then be read by various other X
       utilities for redisplay, printing,  editing,  formatting,
       archiving, image processing, etc.

OPTIONS
       -display display
	       This  argument allows you to specify the server to
	       connect to; see X(1).

       -help   Print out the `Usage:' command syntax summary.

       -nobdrs This  argument  specifies  that	the  window  dump
	       should  not  include the pixels that compose the X
	       window border.  This is useful in situations where
	       you  may wish to include the window contents in a
	       document as an illustration.

       -out file
	       This argument allows the user to explicitly  spec-
	       ify  the output	file  on  the command line.  The
	       default is to output to standard out.

       -xy     This option applies to  color  displays	only.  It
	       selects `XY' format dumping instead of the default
	       `Z' format.

       -add value
	       This option specifies an signed value to be  added
	       to every pixel.

       -frame  This  option  indicates	that  the  window manager
	       frame should be included when manually selecting a
	       window.

       -root   This  option indicates that the root window should
	       be selected for the window dump, without requiring

	       the user to select a window with the pointer.

       -id id  This  option  indicates	that  the window with the
	       specified resource id should be selected for  the
	       window  dump, without requiring the user to select
	       a window with the pointer.

       -name name
	       This option indicates that  the	window	with  the
	       specified  WM_NAME property should be selected for
	       the window dump, without requiring  the	user  to
	       select a window with the pointer.

       -icmap  Normally the colormap of the chosen window is used
	       to obtain RGB  values.	This  option  forces  the
	       first  installed colormap of the screen to be used
	       instead.

       -screen This option indicates that  the	GetImage  request
	       used  to obtain	the  image should be done on the
	       root window, rather than directly on the specified
	       window.	In  this  way,	you can obtain pieces of
	       other windows that overlap the  specified  window,
	       and  more  importantly,	you  can capture menus or
	       other popups  that  are	independent  windows  but
	       appear over the specified window.

       -silent Operate silently, i.e. don't ring any bells before
	       and after dumping the window.

ENVIRONMENT
       DISPLAY To get default host and display number.
