ppmmake - create a pixmap of a specified size and color
 
SYNOPSIS
ppmmake
color width height
 
DESCRIPTION
Produces a portable pixmap of the specified color, width, and height.
The color can be specified in five ways:
- o
 - 
A name, assuming
that a pointer to an X11-style color names file was compiled in.
 - o
 - 
An X11-style hexadecimal specifier: rgb:r/g/b, where r g and b are
each 1- to 4-digit hexadecimal numbers.
 - o
 - 
An X11-style decimal specifier: rgbi:r/g/b, where r g and b are
floating point numbers between 0 and 1.
 - o
 - 
For backwards compatibility, an old-X11-style hexadecimal
number: #rgb, #rrggbb, #rrrgggbbb, or #rrrrggggbbbb.
 - o
 - 
For backwards compatibility, a triplet of numbers
separated by commas: r,g,b, where r g and b are
floating point numbers between 0 and 1.
(This style was added before MIT came up with the similar rgbi style.)
