Position

Alternatively, you can specify command-line values by position. Here is an example.

     % thresh raw clipped 0 255

This applies thresholds to the NDF called raw to form a new NDF called clipped. The values between 0 and 255 are unchanged. Note that trailing parameters may be omitted--NEWLO and NEWHI in the above example--but intermediate ones may not. The position of a parameter can be found in the Usage heading in the application specifications or the help for the application.
