<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<p>This program is part of <a href="index.html">Netpbm</a>.
<B>pamstretch-gen</B> is a program which uses <B><A
HREF="pamstretch.html">pamstretch</A></B>, <B><A
HREF="pnmfile.html">pnmfile</A></B>, and <B><A
HREF="pamscale.html">pamscale</A></B> to smoothly scale up a PNM file
by any ratio; it's like a more general version of pamstretch (hence
the name). But other than the `any ratio' bit, it's much the same as
pamstretch. :-)
<A NAME="lbAE"> </A>
<H2>LIMITATIONS</H2>
The program uses <b>awk</b> just to make some simple floating-point
calculations, which is probably overkill. But using <b>dc</b> makes
my head hurt.
