HIR to XBM Conversion: FAQ

What are HIR files?

HIR is an old image format associated with Commodore 64 computers, providing what was seen at the time as "high resolution". The Commodore 64 was one of the first types of computers widely available for home users and had an unprecedented popularity in the 1980s. At the moment, however, such files are considered rare and obsolete, so for easier handling you should probably convert them to a more accessible format.

What are XBM files?

The XBM (X BitMap) format represents a monochrome image file usually used for storing cursor and icon bitmaps in the X graphical user interface. XBMs store data as C language data array, so they can be included directly into an application. They are, however, fairly large in size. In the late 1980s the XBM format was superseded by the XPM format for the X Windows System.
