Convert an ILBM file to a PPM image:

ilbmtoppm {{path/to/file.ilbm}} > {{path/to/file.ppm}}

Use the specified color to "show through" where the image is transparent:

ilbmtoppm {{[-t|-transparent]}} {{color}} {{path/to/file.ilbm}} > {{path/to/file.ppm}}

Ignore the chunk with the specified chunk ID:

ilbmtoppm {{[-ig|-ignore]}} {{chunkID}} {{path/to/file.ilbm}} > {{path/to/file.ppm}}

Store the input's transparency information to the specified PBM file:

ilbmtoppm {{[-m|-maskfile]}} {{path/to/maskfile.pbm}} {{path/to/file.ilbm}} > {{path/to/file.ppm}}
