.xbm X11 bitmap file format. Native file format of the X Window System used for storing cursor and icon bitmaps that are used in the X Window interface. XBM files are actually C language source files that are created to be read by a C compiler rather than a graphical display program.
.xdp Xdataplot. These files contain only the name of the data file to which they refer. This allows viewing of large sequential datasets like those generated by electrophysiological recording.
.xls Excel Spreadsheet format. Native file format used by the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet program.
.xm Extended Module format. Used by UNIX-type OSs for music. Also known as Fasttracker II format.
.xpm X11 pixmap file format. Standard for storing monochome, gray-scale, and color pixmap data to disk under the X Window system. These files, like .xbm files, are C source code files, with each pixmap being defined as a static char array.
.xwd X Window Dump format. Used to store screen dumps created by the xwd client process in the X Window System. The image of any window or the background may be saved (dumped) to an .xwd file.
