31 The __-1x2__ and __-2x4__ flags give you two alternate
32 ways for the bits to get mapped to characters. With
33 __1x2__, the default, each character represents a group
34 of 1 bit across by 2 bits down. With __-2x4__, each
35 character represents 2 bits across by 4 bits down. With the
36 1x2 mode you can see the individual bits, so it's useful for
37 previewing small bitmaps on a non-graphics terminal. The 2x4
38 mode lets you display larger bitmaps on a standard 80-column
39 display, but it obscures bit-level details. 2x4 mode is also
40 good for displaying graymaps -
