I've updated the parser code for NewNetPBMImageParser to handle 16-bit
direct color (--bpp=16). Remember that to use NewNetPBMImageParser,
in your ~/.pluckerrc file you set "image_parser" to "netpbm2".
To use it, you will need the latest version of my netpbm subpackage
for Palm image formats, which you can get at
ftp://ftp.parc.xerox.com/transient/janssen/pbmpalm.tgz. First get and
unpack a copy of netpbm 9.14 (from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/netpbm/), then unpack pbmpalm.tgz into
the pnm/pnmtopalm/ subdirectory (it's a direct replacement for the
files there). Then build netpbm and install it.
pbmpalm.tgz will probably build just fine with older netpbm packages,
but I tested it with 9.14.
I should probably edit some README file to reflect all this, eh?
