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.
