183) How can I most quickly send an image to the X server?



	The fastest mechanism may be to use an XImage and the shared-memory
extension to reduce the transmission time.
	The MIT-SHM code, documentation, and example client programs can be 
found on the X11R5 source tape; many vendors also support the extension.
	If bandwidth is a problem, the X Image Extension has facilities for
transmitting compressed images.
