The bitmap program is a rudimentary tool for creating or editing
|
||
|
|
rectangular images made up of 1's and 0's. Bitmaps are used in X for
|
||
|
|
defining clipping regions, cursor shapes, icon shapes, and tile and
|
||
|
|
stipple patterns.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The bmtoa and atobm filters convert bitmap files to and from ASCII
|
||
|
|
strings. They are most commonly used to quickly print out bitmaps and
|
||
|
|
to generate versions for including in text.

This is from the modular X.org X11 project.
