The XPM (X PixMap) file extension is a format used for storing pixmap images, primarily in the X Window System for Unix-based systems. Developed in the late 1980s, it allows for the storage of images in plain text, making it human-readable and editable. XPM files are mainly utilized for defining icons and graphical elements in software applications. They support transparency and can be easily integrated into programming languages such as C, enhancing the customization and visual appeal of user interfaces. The format's simplicity and flexibility have cemented its role in software development and graphical design.
The ICO file extension, standing for "Icon", is integral to Microsoft Windows for storing icons of different sizes and color depths. Its primary use is to display graphical representations of executable programs, files, and folders within the Windows operating system. The ICO format's origins trace back to the early versions of Windows, evolving over the decades to support enhanced resolutions and alpha transparency. Today, ICO files ensure visually consistent and scalable icons that maintain their appearance across various display settings, aligning with modern user interface standards.
