  1. DMD bitmap to PostScript translator. Much of the code came from abm,
  2. which was written by Guy Riddle.
  3. By default 6 byte patterns are used to encode the output bitmap. Use
  4. the -b option to change the pattern size. Bitmaps are unpacked one
  5. scanline at a time and re-encoded in a format that looks like,
  6. bytes patterns count
  7. where bytes and count are decimal integers and patterns is a series
  8. of hex digits. Bytes is the number of bytes represented by the hex
  9. pattern, and count is the number of additional times the pattern
  10. should be repeated. For example,
  11. 2 FFFF 4
  12. 5 FFFFFFFFFF 1
  13. 10 FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF 0
  14. all represent 10 consecutive bytes of ones. Scanlines are terminated
  15. by a 0 on a line by itself.
