NAME

       Tk::Pixmap - Create color images from XPM files.

SYNOPSIS

           $widget->Pixmap?(name?,options?)?

DESCRIPTION

       XPM is a popular X Window image file format for storing color icons.  The Pixmap image
       type can be used to create color images using XPM files.

       Pixmaps support the following options:

       -data => string
           Specifies the contents of the source pixmap as a string.  The string must adhere to
           the XPM file format (e.g., as generated by the pixmap(1) program). If both the -data
           and -file options are specified, the -data option takes precedence.  Please note that
           the XPM file parsing code in the xpm library is somewhat fragile. The first line of
           the string must be "/* XPM */" or otherwise a segmatation fault will be caused.

       -file => name
           name gives the name of a file whose contents define the source pixmap.  The file must
           adhere to the XPM file format (e.g., as generated by the pixmap(1) program).

IMAGE METHODS

       When a pixmap image is created, Tk also creates a new object.  This object supports the
       configure and cget methods described in Tk::options which can be used to enquire and
       modify the options described above.
