About: XImage

XImage is the X client side storage mechanism for an X Window System pixel map. The structure of an XImage as defined by the X Window core protocol is the following: typedef struct XImage XImage; struct XImage { int width, height; /* size of image */ int xoffset; /* number of pixels offset in X direction */ int format; /* XYBitmap, XYPixmap, ZPixmap */ char *data; /* pointer to image data */ int byte_order; /* data byte order, LSBFirst, MSBFirst */ int bitmap_unit; /* quant. of scanline 8, 16, 32 */ int bitmap_bit_order; /* LSBFirst, MSBFirst */ int bitmap_pad; /* 8, 16, 32 either XY or ZPixmap */ int depth; /* depth of image */ int bytes_per_line; /* accelerator to next scanline */ int bits_per_pixel; /* bits per pixel (ZPixmap) */ unsigned long red_
