See http:// > lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2004-04/msg00780.html Actually, libXpm has Windows support too, so it shouldn't be a problem on that platform. Honestly, though, the XPM format frightens me, and I'd rather use the library written by the people who created the format, and if necessary rip out the X11-specific bits. (No offense meant to YAMAMOTO Mitsuharu; I'm sure the patch that he wrote is good.) libXpm also provides functions for writing XPM files, if I ever want to add that as well. Thanks for the link, though. It's nice to see that someone was courageous enough to write an XPM parser. -- Hubert Chan - email & Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA (Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net) Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
