- Generate an image using only `n_colors` or less colors as close as possible to the input image:
`pnmcolormap {{n_colors}} {{path/to/input.pnm}} > {{path/to/output.ppm}}`
- Use the splitspread strategy for determining the output colors, possibly producing a better result for images with small details:
`pnmcolormap -splitspread {{n_colors}} {{path/to/input.pnm}} > {{path/to/output.ppm}}`
- Sort the resulting colormap, which is useful for comparing colormaps:
`pnmcolormap -sort {{path/to/input.pnm}} > {{path/to/output.ppm}}`
