+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+
+.SS XpmCreateImageFromData
+To create an XImage from an XPM data, use XpmCreateImageFromData.
+
+The XpmCreateImageFromData function allows you to include in your C program an XPM file which was
+written out by functions such as XpmWriteFileFromImage or XpmWriteFileFromPixmap without reading in the file.
+XpmCreateImageFromData exactly works as XpmReadFileToImage() does and returns the same way.
+It just reads data instead of a file.
+Here again, it is the caller’s responsibeility to free the returned images, the colors
+and possibly the data returned into the XpmAttributes structure.
+
+.SS XpmCreateImageFromBuffer
+To create an XImage from an XPM buffer, use XpmCreateImageFromBuffer.
+The XpmCreateImageFromBuffer works the same way as XpmReadFileToImage(),
+it just parses the buffer instead of the file.
+Be aware that the feature provided on some systems by XpmReadFileToImage
+to deal with compressed files is not available here.
+
+.SS XpmCreateImageFromXpmImage
+To create an XImage from an XpmImage, use XpmCreateImageFromXpmImage.
+From the givenXpmImage andXpmAttributes if notNULL, XpmCreateImageFromXpmImage allocates colors
+and creates X images following the same mechanism as XpmReadFileToImage().
+When finished the caller must free the images using XDestroyImage,
+the colors using XFreeColors, and possibly the
+data returned into the XpmAttributes using XpmFreeAttributes().
