See reader questions & answers on this topic! - Help others by sharing your knowledge [Last modified: Oct 94] Answer: An application called "xv" (interactive image display for the X Window System) is useful for displaying and converting many image formats. From the man page: xv is an X11 program that displays images in the GIF, JPEG, TIFF, PBM, PGM, PPM, X11 bitmap, PDS/VICAR, Sun Rasterfile, and PM formats on 1-, 2-, 4-, 6-, 8-, 16-, 24-, and 32-bit X displays. xv will also read compress-ed versions of these files. You can get "xv" (shareware by John Bradley et al) from: ftp://ftp.cis.upenn.edu/pub/xv or: ftp://ftp.x.org/R5contrib/ Another useful conversion package is "pbm" (portable bitmap file format) by Jef Poskanzer et al, available from: ftp://ftp.x.org/R5contrib/ or: ftp://ftp.x.org/R5contrib/ (much older :-) You might also want to check the X11 FAQ for additional conversion options: ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/faqs/FAQ User Contributions:Top Document: Motif FAQ (Part 5 of 9) Previous Document: 141) Why does XpmCreatePixmapFromData fail with a pixmap containing Next Document: 143) How can I use Motif's pre-defined pixmaps?
