Wojtek,
I have a program, that I wrote from scratch, that will read bitmaps. It
works but I am not in a position right now to support it if anything
goes wrong. It uses two modules, VisualBitmaps, and VisualPictures,
that rely on WinApi. Its not a trivial piece of code. It was written
for a company doing internet image compression.
I'd be more interested in seeing what others (or OuS) has to offer.
