- Description
- The BM file type, associated with X11 Bitmap, is a monochrome bitmap image format used on the X Window System, which is commonly found on Unix and Unix-like operating systems. It stores black-and-white images in a plain text format, where each pixel is represented as either on (black) or off (white). These files are often used for simple icons and cursors within the X11 graphical user interface. Due to its simplicity and text-based nature, BM files can be easily edited with standard text editors.
- A TXT file is a standard text document that contains unformatted text. It is recognized by any text editing or word processing program and can also be processed by most other software programs.
