The XWD (X Windows Dump) file extension refers to an uncompressed bitmap image format used by the X Window System to store screen captures or "screen dumps" of windows or backgrounds. Developed by the X Consortium, it captures images of graphical user interfaces on UNIX and Linux platforms. The format, originating with X10 and later used in X11, is known for its large file sizes due to the lack of compression. XWD files are typically used for debugging and documentation purposes within the realm of computer graphics.
The Silicon Graphics Image (SGI) file format, developed by Silicon Graphics Inc. in 1995, is a raster graphics format designed for high-quality color images. It supports 8 to 32 bits per pixel, three primary color channels, and an optional alpha channel for transparency. The format employs run-length encoding (RLE) compression to minimize file sizes. Initially utilized on Silicon Graphics workstations, the SGI format remains compatible with modern image viewers and editors.
