- Well, if you know how to load the PIC files correctly (the extenders have
- gotten all confused in the past 10 years..), it would SEEM that BMPs'd be
- easy to make. The two types of ".PIC"s I know of are standard memory
- dumps (dumping 7680 bytes of screen memory straight to the disk, and then
- added the 4 color register values.. this is for a Graphics 15 (aka 7.5
- and 7+) screen), and the "Koala" style, compressed, files.
-
- I guess it'd be a good idea to bug IBM gurus on the format of BMP
- files...
