This patch change nothing about how fvwm handles visuals. Part 1 through 4 mainly restructures the image loading code so that each individual image loader function only loads the image data instead of putting it directly into pixmaps. Apart from reducing code duplication (~ -160 lines of code), this allows part 5 and 6 to get image data from the regular fvwm image loader and then use it to create mouse cursors. Each intermediate patch step is usable, meaning that if you don't have time to look through all parts at ones, you could start out with part 1, apply that part, and leave the other parts for later. /Simon Griph
