Scale a	.P...ale effects(1) General Commands ManualScale a .P...ale effects(1)

NAME
       scalex  - Scale a .PNG image using the fast implementation of the Scale
       effects

SYNOPSIS
       scalex [-k N] input.png output.png
DESCRIPTION
       Scale2x,	Scale3x	and Scale4x are	real-time graphics effects able	to in-
       crease the size of small	bitmaps	guessing the  missing  pixels  without
       blurring	the images.

       They  were originally developed for the AdvanceMAME project in the year
       2001 to improve the quality of old games	running	at low	video  resolu-
       tions.

       The specification of the	algorithm and more details are at:

	   http://scale2x.sourceforge.net
       These  command line tools read a	.PNG file and write another image with
       the effects applied.

       The fast	implementation of the Scale effects is used. It	 imposes  some
       limitations of the type of the image usable. Specifically :
             Only  the	 pixel sizes of	1, 2 and 4 bytes are supported.	If the
	      image has	another	pixel size it's	automatically converted.

OPTIONS
       -k N, --scale N
	      Select the scale factor. Available values	are 2,	2x3,  2x4,  3,
	      and 4.
