NAME
       stream  -  a lightweight tool to stream one or more pixel components of
       the image or portion of the image to your choice of storage formats.

SYNOPSIS
       stream [options] input-file output-file

OVERVIEW
       Stream is a lightweight tool to stream one or more pixel components  of
       the  image  or  portion of the image to your choice of storage formats.
       It writes the pixel components as they are read from the input image  a
       row at a time making stream desirable when working with large images or
       when you require raw pixel components.

         -version             print version information

       By default, the image format of `file' is determined by its magic  num-
       ber.   To  specify a particular image format, precede the filename with
       an image format name and a colon (i.e. ps:image) or specify  the  image
       type as the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps).  Specify 'file' as '-' for
       standard input or output.
