       tgatoppm reads a TrueVision Targa file as input and produces a PPM image as output.

       tgatoppm - convert TrueVision Targa file to a PPM image

       In  addition  to  the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (most notably -quiet, see  Common
       Options ), tgatoppm recognizes the following command line options:

       All options can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.

       --alphaout=alpha-filenametgatoppm  creates a PGM image containing the transparency channel values in the input  image.   If
              the  input image doesn't contain a transparency channel, the alpha-filename file contains all zero
              (transparent) transparency values.  If you don't specify --alphaout, tgatoppm does not generate an
              alpha file, and if the input image has a transparency channel, tgatoppm simply discards it.

              If you specify - as the filename, tgatoppm writes the transparency output to Standard  Output  and
              discards the image.

              See pamcomp(1) for one way to use the transparency output file.

       --headerdump
              Causes tgatoppm to dump information from the TGA header to Standard Error.
