NAME
       winicontoppm  -	convert	 a  Windows  .ico file into 1 or more portable
       pixmap files

SYNOPSIS
       winicontoppm [-writeands] [-allicons|-bestqual] [-multippm]  [-verbose]
       [iconfile] [ppmdestfile]

DESCRIPTION
       Reads a Microsoft Windows .ico file, converts it to one or more ppms.

       A  Windows icon contains 1 or more images, at different resolutions and
       color  depths.	Each  image  has  an  'and'   mask,   which   contains
       transparancy data.

       By  default,  the  output  goes	to  Standard  Output.	If you specify
       ppmdestfile, output goes into one or more files named as	 follows.   If
       it's  just  one	file  (i.e.  you specify the -multippm option or don't
       specify -allicons), the file specification is ppmdestfile.ppm.  If it's
       multiple	  files,  their	 file  specifications  are  ppmdestfile_1.ppm,
       ppmdestfile_2.ppm, etc.

       When you specify the -writeands option, the filenames above  are	 modi‐
       fied  to	 include  the string xor as in ppmdestfile_xor.ppm or ppmdest‐
       file_xor_1.ppm.

OPTIONS
       -writeands
	      For each icon written, also write the 'and' (transparancy)  mask
	      as  a  seperate  PBM  file.   It's  name is of the form ppmdest‐
	      file_and.pbm or ppmdestfile_and_1.pbm.

       -allicons
	      Extract all images from the .ico file.

       -bestqual
	      Extract only the best quality (largest, then highest bpp)	 image
	      from the .ico file.

       -multippm
	      Write all ppms to a single file.
