1. changing langwars graphics

I am trying to replace the current graphics with bmp file graphics.
Im trying to do it with this one first, and when i figgure out how to do
that, then ill do the others. Can ANYBODY help me do this?

You'll need to first convert the lines and column positions to pixel
x and y locations. Once you do that, the rest is easy thanks to
Euphoria.

Here is an example code of loading a bitmap, in case you are new at
doing this:

================================================
include image.e
include graphics.e

object bitmap_input
sequence palette_data
sequence bitmap_data

if graphics_mode(18) then
     puts(1, "Graphics Set Error\n")
     abort(1)
end if

bitmap_input = read_bitmap("c:\\windows\\argyle.bmp")
if atom(bitmap_input) then
    puts(1, "Bitmap Read Failure\n")
else
    palette_data = bitmap_input[1]/4
    bitmap_data = bitmap_input[2]
    all_palette(palette_data)
    display_image({0,0},bitmap_data)
end if

while get_key()= -1 do
end while

if graphics_mode(-1) then
     puts(1, "Graphics Set Error\n")
     abort(1)
end if
