SXPM(1) SXPM(1) NAME sxpm - Show an XPM (X PixMap) file and/or convert XPM2 files to XPM version 3. SYNOPSIS sxpm [-d displayname] [-g geometry] [-hints] [-icon filename] [-s symbol color_name] [-p symbol pixel_value] [-plaid | filename | -] [-o filename | -o -] [-nod] [-rgb filename] [-c] [-v] DESCRIPTION The sxpm program can be used to view any XPM (version 2 or 3) file and/or to convert a file from XPM2 to XPM version 3. If sxpm is run without any option specified, the usage is displayed. If no geometry is specified, the show window will have the size of the read pixmap. Pressing the key Q in the window will quit the program. OPTIONS -d display Specifies the display to connect to. -g geom Window geometry (default is pixmap's size). -hints Set ResizeInc for window. -icon filename Set icon to pixmap created from the file filename. -s symbol colorname Overwrite default color to symbol to colorname. -p symbol pixelvalue Overwrite default color to symbol to pixelvalue. -closecolors Try to use "close colors" before reverting to other visuals. -plaid Show the plaid pixmap which is stored as data. filename Read from the file filename and from standard input if filename is '-'. If no input is specified sxpm reads from standard input. -o filename Write to the file filename (overwrite if it already exists) and to standard output if filename is '-'. -nod Do not display the pixmap in a window.

KNOWN BUGS When converting a file from XPM2 to XPM version 3, if several pixels (symbols) get the same color only one will be in the file written out. Some window managers may not accept a pixmap which is not a bitmap as icon because this does not respect ICCCM, many of the well known ones will accept it though.
