decimate - Reduce image or data file of MxN tuples to one of size IxJ
decimate nbytes/pixel width height
[outwidth outheight]
decimate reads a file of width by height data items (each
of which may be of arbitrary size as given by nbytes/pixel ), and
discards enough of them to result in an output file of outwidth by
outheight items, both of which default to 512. If the input image size
is not an integer multiple of the output image size, then the decimated result
will be padded with zero elements (pixels) on the right and top to achieve an
output image of exactly the specified size.
To process a bw(5) format file, use a value of 1 for
nbytes/pixel. To process a pix(5) format file, use a value of
3 for nbytes/pixel.
