NAME
     xwud - image displayer for X

SYNOPSIS
     xwud [-in file] [-noclick] [-geometry geom] [-display display] [-new] [-std
     <maptype>]  [-raw]  [-vis	<vis-type-or-id>] [-scale] [-help] [-rv] [-plane
     number] [-fg color] [-bg color] [-dumpheader] [-version]

DESCRIPTION
     Xwud is an X Window System image undumping utility.  Xwud allows X users to
     display in a window an image saved in a specially formatted dump file, such
     as produced by xwd(1).

OPTIONS
     -bg color
	     If a bitmap image (or a single plane of  an  image)  is  displayed,
	     this option can be used to specify the color to display for the "0"
	     bits in the image.

     -display display
	     This  option  allows  you	to specify the server to connect to; see
	     X(7).

     -dumpheader
	     This option prints out the XWD header information only.  Nothing is
	     displayed.

     -fg color
	     If a bitmap image (or a single plane of  an  image)  is  displayed,
	     this option can be used to specify the color to display for the "1"
	     bits in the image.

     -geometry geom
	     This option allows you to specify the size and position of the win-
	     dow.  Typically you will only want to specify the position, and let
	     the size default to the actual size of the image.

     -help   Print out a short description of the allowable options.

     -in file
	     This option allows the user to explicitly specify the input file on
	     the command line.	If no input file is given, the standard input is
	     assumed.

     -new    This  option  forces  creation of a new colormap for displaying the
	     image.  If the image characteristics happen to match those  of  the
	     display,  this  can  get the image on the screen faster, but at the
	     cost of using a new colormap (which on  most  displays  will  cause
	     other windows to go technicolor).

     -noclick
	     Clicking  any  button in the window will terminate the application,
	     unless  this  option  is  specified.   Termination  can  always  be
	     achieved by typing 'q', 'Q', or ctrl-c.

     -plane number
	     You can select a single bit plane of the image to display with this
	     option.   Planes are numbered with zero being the least significant
	     bit.

     -raw    This option forces the image to be displayed  with  whatever  color
	     values  happen  to  currently  exist on the screen.  This option is
	     mostly useful when undumping an image back  onto  the  same  screen
	     that the image originally came from, while the original windows are
	     still on the screen, and results in getting the image on the screen
	     faster.

     -rv     If  a  bitmap  image  (or a single plane of an image) is displayed,
	     this option forces the  foreground  and  background  colors  to  be
	     swapped.	This  may be needed when displaying a bitmap image which
	     has the color sense of pixel values "0" and "1" reversed from  what
	     they are on your display.

     -scale  Allow  the window to be resized, and scale the image to the size of
	     the window.

     -std maptype
	     This option causes the image to be displayed  using  the  specified
	     Standard Colormap.  The property name is obtained by converting the
	     type to upper case, prepending "RGB_", and appending "_MAP".  Typi-
	     cal  types  are "best", "default", and "gray".  See xstdcmap(1) for
	     one way of creating Standard Colormaps.

     -version
	     This option causes xwd to print its version information and exit.

     -vis vis-type-or-id
	     This option allows you to specify a  particular  visual  or  visual
	     class.   The default is to pick the "best" one.  A particular class
	     can  be  specified:   "StaticGray",   "GrayScale",   "StaticColor",
	     "PseudoColor",  "DirectColor",  or  "TrueColor".  Or "Match" can be
	     specified, meaning use the same class as the source image.   Alter-
	     natively, an exact visual id (specific to the server) can be speci-
	     fied,  either  as a hexadecimal number (prefixed with "0x") or as a
	     decimal number.  Finally, "default" can be  specified,  meaning  to
	     use the same class as the colormap of the root window.  Case is not
	     significant in any of these strings.

ENVIRONMENT
     DISPLAY
	     To get default display.

FILES
     XWDFile.h
	     X Window Dump File format definition file.

BUGS
     xwud  doesn't  handle  big/deep images very well on servers that don't have
     the BIG-REQUESTS extension.
