1.1     ! root        1: 
        !             2: DMD bitmap to PostScript translator. Much of the code came from abm,
        !             3: which was written by Guy Riddle.
        !             4: 
        !             5: By default 6 byte patterns are used to encode the output bitmap. Use
        !             6: the -b option to change the pattern size. Bitmaps are unpacked one
        !             7: scanline at a time and re-encoded in a format that looks like,
        !             8: 
        !             9:        bytes patterns count
        !            10: 
        !            11: where bytes and count are decimal integers and patterns is a series
        !            12: of hex digits. Bytes is the number of bytes represented by the hex
        !            13: pattern, and count is the number of additional times the pattern
        !            14: should be repeated. For example,
        !            15: 
        !            16:        2 FFFF 4
        !            17:        5 FFFFFFFFFF 1
        !            18:        10 FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF 0
        !            19: 
        !            20: all represent 10 consecutive bytes of ones. Scanlines are terminated
        !            21: by a 0 on a line by itself.
        !            22:
