UPREAD2
a tool for extracting and processing segments from UNIPEN files

SYNOPSIS

upread2 [options] file [files]

DESCRIPTION

The following added functionality is available:

1. Recursively descending a directory tree and searching for queried segments in each UNIPEN file. Note that a UNIPEN file is recognized by its first keyword entry, which must be .VERSION 1 This means that for example:

   upread2 / -l WORD -s computer -o /tmp/computer.dat
   

   will find all words "computer" in all UNIPEN files on your filesystem.
2. Outputing segments in other-than UNIPEN format. Formats currently defined are:
   1. output_unipen
   2. output_featchar
   3. output_image

OPTIONS

        -o  outfile (used as base for 'output_image')
        -p  patfile
        -s  string
        -i  index
        -l  level
        -F  first
        -L  last
        -Z  (boolean indicating output in .COORD X Y Z format, default=X Y)
        -O  output-function
                where output-function can be any of the following strings:
                output_unipen
                output_featchar
                output_image

        -n  #resample points (for 'output_image' and 'output_featchar')

        -m  margin (for 'output_image')
        -b  brush
        -w  width
        -h  height
        -frmt format (requested output format [xbm|ppm])
        -d  factor (for adjusting resampling (between [0,1])
