Prepend the given  directory  to  the   image  search-path.  Useful  for
applications defining a private image directory.

Typically one would put all images required   by an application in *.xpm
files in a directory called bitmaps. The   load  file of the application
makes a call

	:- pce_image_directory(bitmaps).

after which the images from the  directory   may  be accessed using -for
example-:

	send(Box, fill_pattern, image('my_image.bm')).

See also the ImageViewer demo  tool  to   get  an  overview of available
images in a directory.

Images and program resources
----------------------------

pce_image_directory/1   prepends   the   given     directory    to   the
file_search_path/2 declarations using the alias   `image'. Especially if
the application should (eventually)  be  turned   into  a  runtime,  the
following skeleton for using images as program resources is adviced:

resource(cute,	image, image('cute.xpm')).

	...
	new(I, image(resource(cute)),
	...
