Scale a .P...le effects(1)   General Commands Manual  Scale a .P...le effects(1)

NAME
     scalerx  -  Scale	a  .PNG  image using the reference implementation of the
     Scale effects

SYNOPSIS
     scalerx [-k N] [-w] [-r 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 blur-
     ring 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 resolutions.

     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 reference implementation of the Scale effects is used.

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

     -w, --wrap
	    Compute the image border for a wraparound effect.

     -r N   Select a specific revision of the effect.  The default is scaleX us-
	    ing  algorithm  'x'  or '1'.  To select the new scaleK use algorithm
	    'k' or '2'.  To scale an image without any effect use the value '0'.
	    Other nunbers are alternative versions.  Refers at the source imple-
	    mentation for more details.
