BitHack Description

BitHack is a very old utility that I have originally wrote in DOS and have updated to windows. It does one thing, and that is extraction of bitmaps from binary files. I'm not talking about RLE or compressed bitmaps, but raw pixmap or DIB, i.e. actual pixels saved to file, usually scanline by scanline with maybe some pad bytes between. BitHack allows you to extract that data and display it, refining the parameters in real time until you have the right image. It takes some skill to recognise an image and bring it into "focus" but it's lots of fun anyway.
