- Library for storing/retrieving X pixmaps
- .description
- XPM (X PixMap) is a format for storing/retrieving X pixmaps to/from files.
-
- Here is provided a library containing a set of four functions, similar to the
- X bitmap functions as defined in the Xlib: XpmCreatePixmapFromData,
- XpmCreateDataFromPixmap, XpmReadFileToPixmap and XpmWriteFileFromPixmap for
- respectively including, storing, reading and writing this format, plus four
- other: XpmCreateImageFromData, XpmCreateDataFromImage, XpmReadFileToImage and
- XpmWriteFileFromImage for working with images instead of pixmaps.
-
- This new version provides a C includable format, defaults for different types
- of display: monochrome/color/grayscale, hotspot coordinates and symbol names
- for colors for overriding default colors when creating the pixmap. It provides
- a mechanism for storing information while reading a file which is re-used
- while writing. This way comments, default colors and symbol names aren't lost.
- It also handles "transparent pixels" by returning a shape mask in addition to
- the created pixmap.
