DESCRIPTION
The sxpm program can be used to view any XPM (version 1, 2, or 3) file
and/or to convert a file from XPM1 or XPM2 to XPM version 3. If sxpm is
run with any dummy option specified, the usage is displayed. If no
geometry is specified, the show window will have the size of the read
pixmap. Pressing the key Q in the window will quit the program.

put.

KNOWN BUGS
Some window managers may not accept a pixmap which is not a bitmap as
icon because this does not respect ICCCM, many of the well known ones
will accept it though.
