It's probably worth noting that images encoded in the .xpm format are binary pixmaps embedded in a C source file. Consider the following commands (requires wget and imagemagick): f=openlogo-nd-50 wget http://www.debian.org/logos/$f.png convert $f.png $f.xpm rm $f.png convert $f.xpm $f.png Or, if that's too difficult (perhaps convert doesn't support the hex format you're seeing), run the program to display the image and then do a screen capture. I'd be more worried about data formats which we can't support (such as programs written in languages which don't have any free implementations). -- Raul
