NAME
rleselect - Select images from an RLE file.
SYNOPSIS
rleselect [ -i infile ] [ -o outfile ] [ -v ] [ image-numbers ... ]
DESCRIPTION
This program selects images from an RLE(5)
file containing multiple concatenated images.
The selected images are specified by number;
the first image in the file is number 1. A
negative number in the image-numbers list
means that all images from the previous
number in the list to the absolute value of
this number should be included. A zero in
the list is taken as '-infinity', so that all
images from the previous number to the last
image in the file will be included. To try
to clarify this, some examples are included
below.
OPTIONS
-i infile
The input will be read from this file.
If infile is "-" or is not specified,
the input will be read from the standard
input stream.
-o outfile
If specified, the output will be written
to this file. If outfile is "-", or if
it is not specified, the output will be
written to the standard output stream.
-v Verbose output.
