SYNOPSIS

pnmhistmap [options] [file]

DESCRIPTION

pnmhistmap creates a visual histogram image showing the distribution of pixel values in a PNM image. The output is a PNM image where the horizontal axis represents sample values and the vertical axis shows how many pixels have each value.For color images, separate histograms are drawn for each channel. The -width and -height options control the output image dimensions. The -white flag uses a white background instead of the default black, and -verbose prints statistical information about the distribution. Part of the Netpbm toolkit.
