 '''X PixMap''' ('''XPM''') is an uncompressed raster image file format. It is essentially the color version of [[XBM]].
-An XPM file is plain text. Except for the little-used XPM version 2, it doubles as a fragment of [[C]] program code.
+An XPM file is plain text. But some like the mentioned example <code>dframeIB.xpm</code> contain special characters like zero-byte or Control-Z at the end. These then no longer represent pure ASCII text, which leads to malfunction of some programs. Except for the little-used XPM version 2, it doubles as a fragment of [[C]] program code.
