       xwud - image displayer for X

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       xwud [-in file] [-noclick] [-geometry geom] [-display display]
    [-new]    [-std    <maptype>]    [-raw]     [-vis
       <vis-type-or-id>]   [-help]  [-rv]  [-plane  number]  [-fg
       color] [-bg color]

OPTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       If a bitmap image (or a single plane of an image) is  displayed,
  this  option  can be used to specify the color to
       display for the 0 bits in the image.  This  option  allows
       you  to specify the server to connect to; see X(1X).  If a
       bitmap image (or a single plane of an image) is displayed,
       this  option  can  be used to specify the color to display
       for the 1 bits in the image.  This option  allows  you  to
       specify the size and position of the window. Typically you
       will only want to specify the position, and let  the  size
       default  to  the  actual  size  of the image.  Print out a
       short description of the allowable options.   This  option
       allows  the  user  to explicitly specify the input file on
       the command line.  If no input file is given, the standard
       input  is  assumed.   This option forces creation of a new
       colormap for displaying the image. If the image characteristics
  happen to match those of the display, this can get
       the image on the screen faster, but at the cost of using a
       new colormap (which on most displays will cause other windows
 to go technicolor).  Clicking any button in the  window
  will terminate the application, unless this option is
       specified.  Termination can always be achieved  by  typing
       'q', 'Q', or ctrl-c.  You can select a single bit plane of
       the image to display with this option.   Planes  are  numbered
  with  zero  being  the least significant bit.  This
       option can be used to figure out which plane  to  pass  to
       xpr(1X)  for printing.  This option forces the image to be
       displayed with whatever color values happen  to  currently
       exist  on  the  screen.  This option is mostly useful when
       undumping an image back onto  the  same  screen  that  the
       image originally came from, while the original windows are
       still on the screen, and results in getting the  image  on
       the  screen  faster.  If a bitmap image (or a single plane
       of an image) is displayed, this option  forces  the  foreground
  and  background colors to be swapped.  This may be
       needed when displaying a bitmap image which has the  color
       sense  of pixel values 0 and 1 reversed from what they are
       on your display.  This option causes the image to be  displayed
  using  the specified Standard Colormap.  The property
 name is obtained by  converting  the  type  to  upper
       case,  prepending  RGB_, and appending _MAP. Typical types
       are best, default, and gray.  See xstdcmap(1X) for one way
       of creating Standard Colormaps.  This option allows you to
       specify a particular visual or visual class.  The  default
       is  to  pick  the  "best"  one.  A particular class can be
       specified:  StaticGray,  GrayScale,  StaticColor,  PseudoColor,
  DirectColor, or TrueColor.  Or Match can be specified,
 meaning use the same  class  as  the  source  image.
       Alternatively, an exact visual id (specific to the server)
       can be specified, either as a hexadecimal number (prefixed
       with  0x)  or as a decimal number. Finally, default can be
       specified, meaning to use the same class as  the  colormap
       of  the  root  window.   Case is not significant in any of
       these strings.

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The xwud program is an X  Window  System  image  undumping
       utility.   xwud  allows  X users to display in a window an
       image saved in a specially formatted dump  file,  such  as
       produced by xwd(1X).

ENVIRONMENT    [Toc]    [Back]

       To get default display.

FILES    [Toc]    [Back]

       X Window Dump File format definition file.
