pamtopam - copy PAM image

       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pamtopam  simply copies a PAM image from Standard Input to Standard Output.  This may seem an unnecessary
       duplication of cat, but remember that a PAM program can read a PBM, PGM, or PPM image as if it were  PAM.
       So pamtopam can read either a PBM, PGM, PPM, or PAM image and produce a PAM image as output.

       Even  that  is  of limited usefulness because of the fact that almost any program to which you would feed
       the resulting PAM image could also just take the original image directly.  However, sometimes you  really
       want a true PAM image.

       You can do a more general job of translating PAM/PNM to PAM with pamchannel.
