I've just started to use X (X11R3) on SUN workstations.  Previously I had
been using 'suntools' and had fiddled with NeWS and X a bit.

I'd like to be able to use some of the classier icons I've collected and
had been using with suntools.  As a first pass, I just pulled out the
sunview icon header, put in my notion of a reasonable X icon header, and 
used 'bitmap' to display the icon image.  It looked almost right... but 
not quite.  It was as though each of the objects were mirror imaged, but
were correctly placed relative to eachother.  Additionally, some of the
borders seemed out of place.

Here is the sunview version
    /* Format_version=1, Width=64, Height=64, Depth=1, Valid_bits_per_item=16
     */
	  [bitmap here]

And here is what I replaced it with for X
	#define Notes_width 64
	#define Notes_height 64
	static short Notes_bits[] = {
	  [bitmap here]
	}

Now for the question:  Is there a known way to do whatever bitmap translation
is necessary here?  Have I missed the obvious?

Thanks in advance
