Hi all,
I have an image in the file, say "~/image.png". I want to display it in
an interactive function - say, the user says M-x display-my-image, and
I want a buffer containing the image to pop up. What do I do? Of
course, (find-file "~/image.png") works, but it's probably not what
I should do in an Elisp program, right?
TIA,
--

(let ((image (create-image "~/image.png")))
(pop-to-buffer "*image*")
(insert-image image))
