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.
The SIX file extension, short for "six pixels", is a bitmap graphics format developed by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) for their terminals and printers. Introduced initially to send bitmap graphics to DEC dot matrix printers like the LA50, SIX later facilitated the transfer of soft fonts to terminals such as the VT220. This format encodes images using a series of six-pixel-high patterns, making it efficient for transmitting graphics over 7-bit serial links. Rediscovered around 2010, SIX remains in use with modern terminal emulators for tasks like video playback.
