This may be a stupid question, but what is the magic to putting a bitmap
into a window?  I made a window with XCreateSimpleWindow, used
XCreateBitmapFromData to make the bitmap, and then realized I have *no*
idea where to go from here!

The code is going to be used to display bitmaps that are generated by
a contour tracing program (which is already written).

I would appreciate any help/suggestions/code that any of you can pass along.
