250 <p>We list a few examples of the <kbd>stream</kbd> command here to illustrate its usefulness and ease of use. To get started, lets stream the red, green, blue components of a 640x480 JPEG image to disk as unsigned characters:</p>
251
252 <p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $ </span><span class='crtin'>stream -map rgb -storage-type char image.jpg pixels.dat</span><span class='crtout'></span><span class="crtprompt"> $ </span><span class='crtin'>display -depth 8 -size 640x480 rgb:pixels.dat</span></p>
253 <p>Here we extract a 100x100 region from a TIFF image in the grayscale format as doubles:</p>
254
255 <p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $ </span><span class='crtin'>stream -map i -storage-type double -extract 100x100+30+40 image.tif gray.raw</span></p>
256 <p>You can also associate the region to extract with the image filename:</p>
257
258 <p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $ </span><span class='crtin'>stream -map i -storage-type double 'image.tif[100x100+30+40]' gray.raw</span></p>
