xmac(6)xmac(6)NAMExmac - display Apple MacPaint image files under X windows
SYNOPSISxmac filename [ -ps ] [ host:display ] [ -geometry ]
DESCRIPTIONxmac displays a MacPaint file in a window, allows resize/move, and has
an icon. xmac will send the Postscript commands to print the image to
standard out if you include the command line option, -ps.xmac accepts
two other optional command line arguments. You may specify a display
name in the form host:display (see X11(7). And you may provide a geom‐
etry specification. If you don't give a geometry specification, xmac
will ask you where you want to put the window when it starts up. See
X11(7) for a full explanation.
BUGS
There are no known bugs. There are lots of lacking features. I would
like to add editing capability in the future, along with the ability to
clip part of an image to a bitmap format file; as well as replacing the
desktop pattern with an image. Also there should be a way to kill the
process, i.e. a keypress or a mouse click in a box. Also a title bar
would be nice.
ENVIRONMENT
XMAC - the default directory for searching for image files, (after
".").
