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.
