Here is provided a library containing a set of three functions, similar to the X bitmap functions as defined in the Xlib: XCreatePixmapFromData, XReadPixmapFile and XWritePixmapFile for respectively including, reading and writing this format. This new version provides a C includable format, defaults for different types of display: monochrome/color/grayscale, and symbol names for colors for overriding default colors when creating the pixmap. In addition it provides a structure for storing information while reading a file which is re-used while writing. This way comments, default colors and symbol names aren't lost. DISCUSSION: ========== There is a mailing list to discuss about XPM which is xpm-talk@mirsa.inria.fr. Any request to subscribe should be sent to xpm-talk-request@mirsa.inria.fr. ----- Arnaud LE HORS BULL Research France -- Koala Project, XPM Designer lehors@sa.inria.fr Phone:(33) 93 65 77 71 Fax:(33) 93 65 77 66 Inria Sophia Antipolis B.P.109 06561 Valbonne Cedex France -- comp.archives file verification avahi.inria.fr -rw-rw-r-- 1 20019 200 45123 Apr 11 13:19 /pub/xpm-3.0a.ps.Z -rw-rw-r-- 1 20019 200 65733 Apr 11 13:19 /pub/xpm-3.0a.tar.Z -rw-rw-r-- 1 20019 200 5116 Apr 11 13:19 /pub/xpm.README /pub/xpm-talk-archive: total 95 -rw-rw-rw- 1 32767 3 53771 Jan 30 21:04 1991-01 -rw-rw-rw- 1 32767 3 17273 Feb 28 00:48 1991-02 -rw-rw-rw- 1 32767 3 10964 Mar 8 18:55 1991-03 -rw-rw-rw- 1 1 2 13810 Apr 24 09:44 1991-04 found xpm ok avahi.inria.fr:/pub/xpm*
