- Description
- The XPM (X11 Pixmap Graphic) file format is a plain text file format used to store pixmap images, which are pixel-based graphics. It is designed for use with the X Window System, commonly used in Unix and Linux environments. XPM files define images in a structured format, using ASCII text to describe each pixel's color and location within the image. This format supports both monochrome and color images and allows for the definition of custom color palettes.
- The PGX file format is associated with Hopedot VOS, a virtual operating system software that allows users to run a separate operating environment on their computers, similar to virtualization technologies. A PGX file typically contains data related to the Hopedot VOS environment, such as settings, applications, and other user-specific information.
