  12. If you wan't to minimize software development, you may use external image decoders through popen() like the following:
  13.  
  14. char string[100];
  15. sprintf(command, "imgtoppm | ppmtoxwd < %s", filename);
  16. fd = popen("imgtoppm | ppmtoxwd < picture.img");
  17.  
  18. and write your own xwd decoder internally or look at the xwud.c program: mit/clients/xwud/xwd.c
