In responce to my question about the black box around bitmaps, David =
Cuny wrote:

Converts the bitmap into 'slices', and remove the 'invisible' color. For
example, consider the box in this bitmap. The outer border is color 1, =
the
inner border is color 2, and the inner color is color 0 (invisible).

This can be broken into the following:

   { 0, 0, {1,1,1,1,1,1} }
   { 0, 1, {1,2,2,2,2,1} }
   { 0, 2, {1,2} }
   { 4, 2, {2,1} }
   { 0, 3, {1,2} }
   { 4, 3, {2,1} }
   { 0, 4, {1,2,2,2,2,1} }
   { 0, 5, {1,1,1,1,1,1} }

The first two values indicate where to place the scanline, relative to =
the
origin. The sequence following represents the pixels to draw.

But, how do I do that? It's a little too complicated, I don't know much =
about bits and bytes. Can someone help simplify?

Thnks
