CXPM(1) CXPM(1)
NAME
cxpm - Check an XPM (X PixMap) file - XPM 1, 2, or 3.
SYNOPSIS
cxpm [filename]
DESCRIPTION
The cxpm program can be used to check the format of any XPM (version
1, 2, or 3) file. On error, unlike sxpm, cxpm prints out an error
message indicating where the parser choked. This should help finding
out what's wrong with an XPM file but do not expect too much from it
though. This is not even close from being some kind of lint program
for XPM. First, it stops at the first error it encounters - so several
fix and retry cycles may be necessary to get your file to parse
successfully. Second, cxpm only cares about the format. If, for
instance, your pixmap uses too many colors for your system you still
may experience difficulties displaying it. Be warned.
When no filename is given cxpm reads from the standard input.
