hi,

i am trying to make what you have written, using XcursorImageLoadCursor

i could not find any example code to convert a pixmap to ximage

and i am new to xwindows programming

can i use XpmCreateDatafromPixmap and XpmCreateImagefromData

to convert a pixmap to ximage

or is there any other simpler method

bye,
vijay
