#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# This script is a modification of a pre-existing script.
# The modifications are by Phillip J Rhoades.
# howtophil@gmail.com
#
# It is based on this script: https://github.com/plurSKI/imageSpectrogram
# http://www.devrand.org/2013/04/image-to-spectrogram.html by Gavin Black
#
# The original script created "hidden" spectrogram images.
#
# The modifications are for creating waterfall images in fldigi
# and similar programs. Since I've made quite a few changes, I've
# renamed the perl script to denote its different purpose.
#
# Please use waterfallpre.sh to "prep" images for transformation
# into waterfall sstv images. Or use GIMP (Ph*t*sh*p, whatever).
# I find gray scale images work best. Fiddle with the contrast
# and brightness and make a few test runs.
#
# ./waterfallpre.sh "imagename.jpg" 150
#
# This will generate 150-imagename.jpg
#
# 10 pixels wide is about 100hz in the fldigi waterfall.
# So, you'll want to keep images 200ish or fewer pixels
# wide in most cases.
#
# I'm not your dad though, so do as you like.
#
# After your image is ready run:
#
# ./imageWaterfall.pl "150-imagename.jpg" <output_file> <sound_frequency_center>
#
# You will then have a wav file which will create a lossy image
# in the fldigi (and similar programs) waterfall display
# when received. Amaze your friends! Be the King Geek and The Dork God!
