Take a look at contrib/clients/pbm of the X11R3 distribution. It contains
a set of routines for converting to and from a portable bitmap format
developed by Jef Poskanzer. You can convert the Sun icon to the portable
bitmap and then from the portable bitmap to X11 bitmap format.
It supports a number of other formats as well (macpaint, GIF, Sun raster etc.)
It also contains a number of utilities for manipulating bitmaps as well.
(Cut and Paste, inverting, flipping). I've found it very useful.
