:-) Well, I *could* say "read the docs" for netpbm... I've expanded my reply above with some more info that should help.

But you should read the docs *anyway* or you might have trouble getting anywhere :-)

The short answer is that you have to build a pipeline with these pieces:

- convert your format (BMP) to one of the PBM/PPM/PGM formats with bmptoppm
- run tools that read/write the PPM format
- convert the format back to BMP when you write the file with ppmtobmp.
