XPM2DVX
XPM2DVX - Converts "XPM2 C" files from other X-Windows systems to a format
that DV/X can handle.
USAGE: xpm2dvx filename.ext
This will rewrite the file in a format that DV/X can understand.
The ICONS this program works with have
/* XPM2 C */
as their first line.
I found them in /packages/X/contrib@ftp.uu.net.
Note, the file xpm2icon.tar.Z is the tar file that I converted.
Most of the files in xpmicons.tar.Z were correct... some were
missing a key part of there definition... (their name) so DV/X
choked on 'em.
XPM2DVX will keep the name given if there is one... otherwise
it will get the name from the filename. (the name is internal to
the file... I've no idea what it does. :0 )
READ THIS *** READ THIS *** READ THIS *** READ THIS ***
***Make sure the .xpm files you have have had***
***their linefeeds converted to carriage return and linefeeds.***
The program crow.exe included will do this for you.
Just type crow filename.ext
Crow does no error checking... so don't run it on a binary file, or
a file that has carriage returns in it... it'll mess 'em up. :)
DISCLAIMER:
USE at your own risk... it should be okay... but I'm not responsible.
SIDENOTE: Personally, I don't use the Application Manager... but my
wife likes icons... so here _we_ are.
