rasls(1NCARG)


NAME

   rasls - list information on rasterfiles

SYNOPSIS

   rasls  [-type]  [-count]  [-resolution]  [-verbose]  [-Version]  [-ifmt
   file_format] [files]

DESCRIPTION

   For each file rasls  will  generate  a  one  line  description  of  the
   rasterfile.  Information  provided  includes the format type (Sun, HDF,
   etc.), the encoding (indexed, direct, etc.), resolution, and  filename.
   Files  that  cannot be read as rasterfiles, are empty, are directories,
   or are otherwise unrecognizable are simply listed as such.

OPTIONS

   -type  Print the encoding type of the rasterfile. Currently  this  will
          be either indexed or direct.

   -count Print the number of frames in the raster file.

   -resolution
          Print the spatial resolution of a file in pixels.

   -help  Print help information.

   -verbose
          Print  as  much  information  as possible about each rasterfile.
          Information provided is a combination of format-independent  and
          format-dependent parameters.

   -Version
          Print the version number.

   -ifmt format
          Specify  the  input file format.  format is one of the file name
          extensions discussed in ras_formats(5NCARG)  (without  the  ".",
          e.g.   xwd).  When this option is specified file name extensions
          are not necessary and are ignored if present.  All  input  files
          must have the same format.
