unsigned long XGetPixel(ximage, x, y) XImage *ximage; int x; int y; ARGUMENTS
ximage Specifies the image. x y Specify the x and y coordinates. DESCRIPTION
The XGetPixel function returns the specified pixel from the named image. The pixel value is returned in normalized format (that is, the least-significant byte of the long is the least-significant byte of the pixel). The image must contain the x and y coordinates. SEE ALSO

NAME
XSubImage - image utilities SYNTAX
XImage *XSubImage(ximage, x, y, subimage_width, subimage_height) XImage *ximage; int x; int y; unsigned int subimage_width; unsigned int subimage_height; ARGUMENTS
ximage Specifies the image. x y Specify the x and y coordinates. subimage_width Specifies the width of the new subimage, in pixels. subimage_height Specifies the height of the new subimage, in pixels. DESCRIPTION
The XSubImage function creates a new image that is a subsection of an existing one. It allocates the memory necessary for the new XImage structure and returns a pointer to the new image. The data is copied from the source image, and the image must contain the rectangle defined by x, y, subimage_width, and subimage_height. SEE ALSO
