The +default ratios are both 1.5. Given ratios can be any rational number, but +just because bit2spr allows it doesn't mean the TeX processor will like the +result. + +Bit2spr gives the sprites the same name as the filename, which means that +directory slashes will be included. If no files are named to be read (ie: +input taken from stanard input), bit2spr will only read the first sprite and +name it Dummy. +.SH EXAMPLES +.I bit2spr < test > test.tex +would instruct bit2spr to take standard input ( +.B test +in this case) and write +to stadard output ( +.B test.tex +in this case). + +.I bit2spr -width 2.0 -height 2.5 -output test.tex test +would instruct bit2spr to change the width ratio to 2.0, the height ratio to +2.5, write to the file test.tex, and read from the file test. + +.I bit2spr -output test.tex < test +would instruct bitspr to write to test.tex, and read from standard input ( +.B test +in this case). +.SH ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS +Martin Costabel for writing the sprite.sty for LaTeX +.SH AUTHOR +Marc David Rovner (mrovner@ic.sunysb.edu) + |
