pnmsmooth(1)

NAME
       pnmsmooth - smooth out an image

SYNOPSIS
       pnmsmooth [-size width height] [-dump dumpfile] [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION
       Smooths  out  an  image  by  replacing each pixel with the
       average of its width X height  neighbors.   It  is  imple-
       mented  as  a  C  progam  that generates a PGM convolution
       matrix and then invokes pnmconvol.

OPTIONS
       -size width height
              Specifies  the  size  of  the  convolution  matrix.
              Default  size  is  a  3x3 matrix.  Width and height
              sizes must be odd.   Maximum  size  of  convolution
              matrix  is limited by the maximum value for a pixel
              such that (width * height * 2) must not exceed  the
              maximum pixel value.

       -dump dumpfile
              Generates and saves the convolution file only.  Use
              of this option does not invoke pnmconvol.
