Thanks for the info. I was wondering what the hell matt was for. It
didn't seem to do anything and whenever I tried it, to see if it did the
job, the window manager wouldn't open the xpm. Sometimes the xpm wouldn't
save to disk either. Actually that may have been gimp I don't remember.
Again thanks. I really appreciate your reply along with all the rest.
Thanks all.
