Linux Graphic Utilities

Red Hat Linux comes with a rich assortment of graphics clients. You'll also find more than 20,000 2D graphics images and icons included on this book's CD-ROMs. These images include

• 15,000 Portable Network Graphics (PNG) files
• 2,000 Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) files
• 2,000 X11 pixmap (XPM) graphics
• 700 X11 bitmap (XBM) graphics
• 500 Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) images
• 200 Portable Bitmap (PBM) graphics

If you're familiar with Linux, you'll recognize many of these graphics formats and probably work with them every day. If you're new to Linux, you may or may not have worked with image formats commonly used in the Linux environment (such as XBM and XPM).
