%%	reply_image(+Image, +Options)
%
%	Formulate a CGI reply from an XPCE graphical.  This call handles
%	anything that can be converted into a pixmap object, notably any
%	XPCE graphical object.
%
%	Currently the only option recognised is content_type(+Type) to
%	specify the type.  image/jpeg and image/gif are the only sensible
%	values.  The default is to generate gif.
%
%	If this module is used as a server on X11-based systems the user
%	must ensure the presence of an X11 server.  The XPCE library
%	'Xserver' provides code to start a `head-less' (i.e. server that
%	doesn't need a physical display) server and adjust the
%	environment to make XPCE use this server.
