-.TH WRJPGCOM 1 "15 June 1995"
-.SH NAME
-wrjpgcom \- insert text comments into a JPEG file
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B wrjpgcom
-[
-.B \-replace
-]
-[
-.BI \-comment " text"
-]
-[
-.BI \-cfile " name"
-]
-[
-.I filename

-.LP
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.LP
-.B wrjpgcom
-reads the named JPEG/JFIF file, or the standard input if no file is named,
-and generates a new JPEG/JFIF file on standard output. A comment block is
-added to the file.
-.PP
-The JPEG standard allows "comment" (COM) blocks to occur within a JPEG file.
-Although the standard doesn't actually define what COM blocks are for, they
-are widely used to hold user-supplied text strings. This lets you add
-annotations, titles, index terms, etc to your JPEG files, and later retrieve
-them as text. COM blocks do not interfere with the image stored in the JPEG
-file. The maximum size of a COM block is 64K, but you can have as many of
-them as you like in one JPEG file.
-.PP
-.B wrjpgcom
-adds a COM block, containing text you provide, to a JPEG file.
-Ordinarily, the COM block is added after any existing COM blocks; but you
-can delete the old COM blocks if you wish.
-.SH OPTIONS
-Switch names may be abbreviated, and are not case sensitive.
-.TP
-.B \-replace
-Delete any existing COM blocks from the file.
-.TP
-.BI \-comment " text"
-Supply text for new COM block on command line.
-.TP
-.BI \-cfile " name"
-Read text for new COM block from named file.
-.PP
-If you have only one line of comment text to add, you can provide it on the
-command line with
-.BR \-comment .
-The comment text must be surrounded with quotes so that it is treated as a
-single argument. Longer comments can be read from a text file.
-.PP
-If you give neither
-.B \-comment
-nor
-.BR \-cfile ,
-then
-.B wrjpgcom
-will read the comment text from standard input. (In this case an input image
-file name MUST be supplied, so that the source JPEG file comes from somewhere
-else.) You can enter multiple lines, up to 64KB worth. Type an end-of-file
-indicator (usually control-D) to terminate the comment text entry.
-.PP
-.B wrjpgcom
-will not add a COM block if the provided comment string is empty. Therefore
-\fB\-replace \-comment ""\fR can be used to delete all COM blocks from a file.
-.SH EXAMPLES
-.LP
-Add a short comment to in.jpg, producing out.jpg:
-.IP
-.B wrjpgcom \-c
-\fI"View of my back yard" in.jpg
-.B >
-.I out.jpg
-.PP
-Attach a long comment previously stored in comment.txt:
-.IP
-.B wrjpgcom
-.I in.jpg
-.B <
-.I comment.txt
-.B >
-.I out.jpg
-.PP
-or equivalently
-.IP
-.B wrjpgcom
-.B -cfile

-.I in.jpg
-.B >
