Am I doing something wrong ? Am I forgetting something ?

BTW in Netpbm 10.28 (the last I compiled) there is no xwdtojpg, but there is
xwdtopnm and pnmtojpeg.
The whole design of the netpbm suite of conversion tools is that they
convert {your-format} to {netpbm-format} and vice versa. That way, only
2*N converters are needed, in order to perform any conversion between N
different formats: e.g.
xwd -> pnm -> jpg
requires xwdtopnm, and pnmtojpeg. Thus, it's not surprising that netpbm
doesn't explicitly provide 'xwdtojpg'. A converter system designed
along those lines would need N^2 different converters to do the job that
netpbm does with only 2*N converters.
