     NAME
          compose  - compose images

     SYNOPSIS
          compose [ -t ][ -c chan ][ -o drawop ] file1 file2 ...

     DESCRIPTION
          Compose uses the Porter-Duff operations to build a new image
          from base images.  The default operation is SoverD.  The
          default channel format is the taken from the first image.
          The composing operation and channel formats are is specified
          as in draw(2) and image(6). The base images may be in (most)
          any format; imgtype(1) is used to intuit the file type and
          convert them to Plan 9 format.  The -t flag forces conver-
          sion to truecolor.
