XPM42
MLX42, like MiniLibX offers built-in support for the XPM format however it implements its own variation of it due to design conflicts regarding the XPM3 variant. XPM overall is a weird format, so much so that it doesn't know if it wants to be written in C or not.
The goal of XPM42 is to introduce a simple to understand format that's not a complete mess.
To convert an XPM3 file to XPM42 download you can download this python script here. Credits and Thanks to TheBriar.
The file format looks like this:
!XPM42 <- File decleration
16 7 2 1 c <- Width | Height | Color count | Characters per Pixel | Mode (C: Color or M: Monochrome)
* #FF0000FF <- Entry always: <Char> <Space> <Hexadecimal> Colors MUST have all four channels (RGBA)
. #00000000
**..*........... <- Literal pixel data
*.*.*...........
**..*..**.**..**
*.*.*.*.*.*..*.*
**..*..**.*...**
