pfsinmulti(1) General Commands Manual pfsinmulti(1)NAME
pfsinmulti - read several streams of frames and write pfs streams to named pipes
SYNOPSIS
pfsinmulti pfsinmulti <file> [--frames f:s:t] [--skip-frames] [<file>...] -- command @1 @2 [@3 ...]
DESCRIPTION
Use this command to read several animation sequences and write them to pfsstreams. This command is useful with those pfs programs, which
take several pfs streams as arguments. For example, the following command can be used to combine two animations so that there are stitched
together:
pfsinmulti anim_a-%04d.hdr anim_b-%04d.hdr -- pfscat @1 @2
arguments @1 and @2 are replaced with named pipes for anim_a-%04d.hdr and anim_b-%04d.hdr frames respectively. command argument is obliga-
tory and it must be preceded with '--'. There should be as many @1, @2, .., @n arguments as there are animation sequences given as input.
Arguments --frames, --skip-frames and other options are handled the same way as in pfsin program. Also pfsinmulti recognizes the same file
formats as pfsin.
Technically, pfsinmulti creates a named pipe for each pfsstream, replaces @n arguments with the names of those pipes and deletes the pipes
when command finishes.
EXAMPLES
pfsinmulti image1.hdr image2.hdr -- cat @1 @2 | pfsview
Does the same as 'pfsv image1.hdr image2.hdr' but in much more sophisticated way.

This command currently does not handle multiple frames given with a %d pattern in case of LDR formats: JPEG, PNG, PNM.

pfsout - Read pfs frames from stdin and write them in the format determined by the extension of the file name
SYNOPSIS
pfsout pfsout <file> [<file>...]
DESCRIPTION
This command can be used to write pfs frames piped to standard input in one of the several recognized formats. The proper format is deter-
mined by the extension of the give file name. To get a list of recognized formats and extensions, execute:
pfsin --help
This command is a front-end for pfsout* programs for writing images: pfsoutrgbe, pfsoutexr, etc. Based on the file extension, appropriate
program is executed. If two different file format are given as parameters, two different program for writing images are executed. Addi-
tional options starting with dash '-' can be passed to pfsout* programs. The following rules apply for passing the options: the options
given before any image file name (or %d pattern) are passed to all pfsout* programs. Options given after image file name are only passed to
the program executed for that file(s). Note also that all option that take an argument (except --frames) must given in the form
--option=value, that is without a space between an option and its argument.
EXAMPLES
pfsin memorial.tiff | pfsout memorial.hdr
Converts from one HDR format to another

Hi,
I was wondering if pipes ("|"), or rather the command that follow them, know when they're supposed to wait for all the data?
For instance, if you take this:
cat my_file | sort | uniq
for uniq to work well, it needs to have rows sorted, but for lines to be sorted properly, it needs... (5 Replies)

So since I'm looking for an easy way to numberize files in a folder according to date:
Is there an easy script (batch, windows), that will rename files like this:
.earliest creation time: 001.file
older creatiin time : 002.file
even older time : 003.file
