NAME
     cxpm - Check an XPM (X PixMap) file - XPM 1, 2, or 3.

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/bin/cxpm [filename]

DESCRIPTION
     The cxpm program can be used to check the format of any  XPM
     (version  1,  2,  or  3)  file.  On error, unlike sxpm, cxpm
     prints out an error  message  indicating  where  the  parser
     choked.  This  should  help finding out what's wrong with an
     XPM file but do not expect too much from it though. This  is
     not even close from being some kind of lint program for XPM.
     First, it stops at  the  first  error  it  encounters  -  so
     several  fix  and  retry cycles may be necessary to get your
     file to parse successfully. Second, cxpm  only  cares  about
     the  format.  If,  for  instance,  your pixmap uses too many
     colors for your system you still may experience difficulties
     displaying it. Be warned.

     When no filename is  given  cxpm  reads  from  the  standard
     input.
