Hi,

I tried

$ ppmrainbow -width 200 -height 20 -color blue -tmpdir=/tmp -verbose 
|xloadimage stdin
Unknown option: color
+ pgmramp -lr 200 20
+ pgmtoppm blue-blue
+ pnmcat -lr /tmp/000.ppm
stdin is a 200x20 Raw PPM image with 256 levels
  Building XImage...done


and I see that there is a file

   /tmp/000.ppm

(which does not look good since it should be rather a tempfile)
but this command does not end.  I had to press <Ctrl>C to end the
command and can confirm that /tmp/000.ppm remains when using
netpbm version 10.0-15.4.

When using netpbm from exprimental I get:

$ ppmrainbow -width 200 -height 20 -color blue -tmpdir=/tmp -verbose 
|xloadimage stdin
Unknown option: color
+ pgmramp -lr 200 20
+ pgmtoppm blue-blue
+ pnmcat -lr /tmp/ppmrainbowCEUx/file.000.ppm
stdin is a 200x20 Raw PPM image with 256 levels
  Building XImage...done

which looks way better due to the usage of tempfile.  This directory
is removed afterwards so I think this bug can be closed with the next
upload.

Kind regards

      Andreas.
