You could use "r.out.tiff" to output the CELL raster file in tiff format; this
can easily be handled with pbm utilities.

r.out.tiff is created by compiling src.contrib/SCS/raster/r.tiff

Note: You'll need to uncomment line 13 of r.tiff/cmd/r.out.tiff.c :

/*#include "rasterfile.h"*/

should be

#include "rasterfile.h"


Good luck,
