- Description
- The MGR bitmap file type is associated with the MGR windowing system, which is one of the early graphical user interfaces primarily used on Unix systems. These files contain bitmap images, which are digital images composed of pixels arranged in a grid. MGR bitmap files are used for storing and displaying simple graphics, icons, and interface components within the MGR environment. Despite its historical significance, the MGR windowing system and its bitmap file format are now considered obsolete and are rarely used in modern applications.
- An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
