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.

       Miscellaneous Options:
         -debug events        display copious debugging information
         -help                print program options
         -log format          format of debugging information
         -list type           print a list of supported option arguments
         -version             print version information

       By default, the image format of `file' is determined by its magic
       number.  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.
