+Netpbm is a toolkit for conversion of images between a variety of
+different formats, as well as to allow a few basic image operations.
+Netpbm is based on the widely spread Pbmplus package (release: 10 Dec
+91). On top of that, a lot of improvements and additions have been
+made. After the latest release of Pbmplus, a lot of additional filters
+have been circulating on the net. The aim of Netpbm was, to collect
+these and to turn them into a package. This work has been performed by
+a group of programmers all over the world.
