img-bmp(n)img-bmp(n)______________________________________________________________________________NAMEimg-bmp - Img, Windows Bitmap Format (bmp)
SYNOPSIS
package require Tk
package require img::bmp ?1.4?
image create photo ?name? ?options?
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
The package img::bmp is a sub-package of Img. It can be loaded as a
part of the complete Img support, via package require Img, or on its
own, via package require img::bmp.
Like all packages of Img it does not provide new commands, but extends
the existing Tk command image so that it supports files containing
raster images in the Windows Bitmap Format (bmp). More specifically
img::bmp extends Tk's photo image type.
The name of the new format handler is bmp. This handler does not pro‐
vide additional configuration options.
All of the above means that in a call like
image create photo ?name? ?options?
[1] Image data in bmp format (options -data and -file) is detected
automatically.
[2] The format name bmp is recognized by the option -format.
