   45Prepend the given  directory  to  the   image  search-path.  Useful  for
   46applications defining a private image directory.
   47
   48Typically one would put all images required   by an application in *.xpm
   49files in a directory called bitmaps. The   load  file of the application
   50makes a call
   51
   52        :- pce_image_directory(bitmaps).
   53
   54after which the images from the  directory   may  be accessed using -for
   55example-:
   56
   57        send(Box, fill_pattern, image('my_image.bm')).
   58
   59See also the ImageViewer demo  tool  to   get  an  overview of available
   60images in a directory.

   62Images and program resources
   63----------------------------
   64
   65pce_image_directory/1   prepends   the   given     directory    to   the
   66file_search_path/2 declarations using the alias   `image'. Especially if
   67the application should (eventually)  be  turned   into  a  runtime,  the
   68following skeleton for using images as program resources is adviced:
   69
   70resource(cute,  image, image('cute.xpm')).
   71
   72        ...
   73        new(I, image(resource(cute)),
   74        ...
