i've looked through the contrib directory on expo, but have been
unable to find the xpm stuff. can somebody give me a better pointer
to where i could get it via anonymous ftp?

thanks

xpm stuff was in the directory oldcontrib in the past, I don't know if
it's always true.

I put some xpm icons and the xpm package on irisa.irisa.fr (131.254.2.3)
in the directory GOODIES/xpm.

The oldcontrib directory on expo seems to be no more. I copied the xpm files
(xpm.tar.Z and xpmicons.tar.Z) to expo's contrib directory.

Does anybody have any PD tools to make these things?

I mean, I know ATT has one.
