When I save a image with .pnm extension and later I open this image with od
top see bitmap, the first byte is P6. What that is mean? Is it GIMP version?

Thank
you

From the ppm man page:

Each PPM image consists of the following:

- A  magic  number for identifying the file type.  A ppm
  image's magic number is the two characters P6.

Similarly:

format  magic number
--  
PBM P4
PGM P5
PPM P6


pnm -+
 +- pbm
 +- pgm
 +- ppm

PNM is like a general term for the PBM, PGM, and PPM formats.
