NAME istat - print the header information of a list of image files. SYNOPSIS /usr/sbin/istat imagefiles . . . DESCRIPTION istat prints the header information of a list of image files. x/ysize give the image's screen size in pixels; zsize is the number of channels in the image. An RGB image will typically have three channels, while a Monochrome image will use one channel. Min and max are the range of pixel intensity values in the image. Bpp describes how many bytes are stored in each channel of the image; either 1 byte or 2 bytes. Type of image can be NORMAL, DITHERED, SCREEN, or COLORMAP. Storage refers to the way the data is compressed: rle is a run-length encoded image, verb is a verbatim image which means the data is not compressed in any way.
