Piping p.map results to a file

[Jerry W. Cox]

Hello,

I am very interested in finding a method to save a map produced with p.map,
as a 
GIF or BMP or PCX or JPEG image.  The idea is to have pretty images,
generated in GRASS, available as part of a Web page.  I have seen the
visualization and image demo's available at cecer, but I can't seem to find
information concerning the methods for saving (exporting, etc) a "plotfile"
as a GIF, JPEG, etc.
My thanks to those who can help.

Have a nice day,

Jerry Cox
