Usage:

r.out.ppm3 [-qc] red=name green=name blue=name output=name

Flags:

-q Run quietly

-c Store the region in the image as comments

Parameters:

red=name
Name of raster map layer to be used for RED component.
green=name

blue=name
Name of raster map layer to be used for BLUE component.
output=filename.ppm

To get the full area of the raster map, do:

    g.region rast=[mapname]

before running r.out.ppm3.

NOTES

One pixel is written for each cell value, so if ew_res and ns_res differ, the aspect ratio of the resulting image will be off.
