BMP format

Could someone send me the specs for Microsofts .BMP format
(actually C code for read and write would be even better).
I tried zamenhof.cs.rice.edu under /pub/graphics.formats
and ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu under /misc/file.formats/graphics.formats,
as well as the PBMPLUS source code, but all to no avail.

Help, please...

Thanks in advance.

I posted a bmptoppm/ppmtobmp pair of programs in alt.sources (I think)
a while back.  I also sent them to Jef for him to add to pbmplus.
They don't yet handle RLE-encoded BMP files, since I didn't know they
existed at the time I wrote the programs.  I'll be working on them
again after I finish my smiley book.
