pgmenhance - edge-enhance a portable graymap
SYNOPSIS
pgmenhance [-N] [pgmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable graymap as input. Enhances the edges, and writes a portable graymap as output.
The edge enhancing technique is taken from Philip R. Thompson's "xim" program, which in turn took it from section 6 of "Digital Halftones
by Dot Diffusion", D. E. Knuth, ACM Transaction on Graphics Vol. 6, No. 4, October 1987, which in turn got it from two 1976 papers by J. F.
Jarvis et. al.
OPTIONS
The optional -N flag should be a digit from 1 to 9. 1 is the lowest level of enhancement, 9 is the highest, The default is 9.

pgmedge - edge-detect a portable graymap
SYNOPSIS
pgmedge [pgmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable graymap as input. Outlines the edges, and writes a portable graymap as output. Piping the result through pgmtopbm
-threshold and playing with the threshold value will give a bitmap of the edges.
The edge detection technique used is to take the Pythagorean sum of two Sobel gradient operators at 90 degrees to each other. For more
details see "Digital Image Processing" by Gonzalez and Wintz, chapter 7.
The maxval of the output is the same as the maxval of the input The effect is better with larger maxvals, so you may want to increase the
maxval of the input by running it through pnmdepth first.

Introduction
I have seen some misinformation regarding Unix file permissions. I will try to set the record straight. Take a look at this example of some output from ls:

sort -nr --key=1 ....
The output I get is:

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.
main()
{
malloc(1gb)
return(0)
}
The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)
I'm trying to install a PGX32 video card on my Sparc 10 Ultra running Solaris 10.
I've got the Oracle installation guide for it and I got as far as:

Hey All,
Quick question...
I'm writing a short script to check if a continuous port is running on a server.
I'm using "ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep processName" and I was wondering if it was better/more reliable to just check the
return code from the command or if its better to pipe to... (12 Replies)
I installed NetBSD 6.1.2 amd64 and can't find the apm utility. Is it not in the base system?
Is it necessary to recompile the default amd64 kernel to use apm?
Or is there a new method for power management and suspend/resume? (2 Replies)
Hi,
I am learning shell scripting for the first time. I use AT&T Korn Shell, Version AJM 93u+ 2012-08-01, compiled from source on NetBSD.
So far I have managed to set up what I think is a useful and pleasing shell prompt, which can be seen in the image attached to this post.
The prompt is... (2 Replies)

Usually when I on the evening go to bed I take some interesting book with me. I read it for a while to get me down to sleep. Probably most people seek information from the Nett by googleing but I am so oldfashioned I prefer a real book ;)
But what a book. The one I found and ordered is BSD Unix®... (0 Replies)
