An ICON file, an abbreviation for Icon Image File, is primarily used in Microsoft Windows operating systems to represent graphical icons. These files are essential for visually identifying applications, files, and folders, enhancing user experience through graphical representation. ICON files support multiple sizes and color depths, ensuring compatibility and visual clarity across different display settings. Introduced in the early versions of Windows, ICON files have evolved to accommodate higher resolutions and color variations, aligning with advancements in display technology. Their primary function is to provide a quick, intuitive visual reference for software and system elements.
The XPM file format is a text-based graphical standard, crucial for icon storage in the X Window System. It supports transparency, facilitating versatile icon design. Editable via text editors and integrable into C/C++ code, it was developed by Dardailler and Nahaboo at the Bull Research Center and later enhanced by Le Hors, making it indispensable for GUI development.
