Hi John,

I'm not sure if that is what you need:

<code snippet>
# 7x4 xbm bitmap:
arrow_up = '#define incr_width 7\n#define incr_height 4\nstatic char incr_bits[] = {   0x08, 0x1c, 0x3e, 0x7f};'
self._arrow_up = Tkinter.BitmapImage(data=arrow_up, foreground=button_fg)
self.up = Tkinter.Button(self._bframe, image=self._arrow_up)

The arrow_up string is simply the contents of an xbm Bitmap file opened with a text editor.
