zic2xpm  -  Tool to convert ZIICS chess pieces into XBoard
       (XPM/XIM) pieces.


SYNOPSIS

       zic2xpm file1 [file2 ...]


DESCRIPTION

       zic2xpm converts one or more ZIICS piece files into a for­
       mat that can be used by XBoard.  If you give more than one
       filename, be aware that multiple sets  of  the  same  size
       cannot  exist in one directory. Multiple sets of different
       sizes can exist in a single directory.


EXAMPLE

       If you wanted to make  a  directory  containing  the  sets
       SET2.V32,  SET2.V40,  SET2.V50, and SET2.V56, all of which
       are located in ~/ziics, you could do:

             mkdir Sets
             cd Sets
             zic2xpm ~/ziics/SET2.*

       You would then run XBoard like this:

            xboard -pixmap Sets
