SYNOPSIS
pgmbentley [pgmfile]
DESCRIPTION
pgmbentley applies the "Bentley effect" to a PGM image, creating a melted or dripping appearance by displacing each pixel vertically based on surrounding brightness. The result resembles wax that has softened and run downward.If no input file is specified, the image is read from standard input. Output is always written to standard output as a PGM file.Part of the Netpbm toolkit.
CAVEATS
Only accepts PGM (grayscale) input. For color images, split channels first with ppmtopgm or process with a separate workflow.
