Also note that an easy way to make sprite data is to set up Deluxe Paint II
in two bitplane mode, draw the image, and save it as a 16-pixel-wide brush.
Now, examine the file, and the BODY section should contain the image data
in the appropriate format, as long as it's not compressed, which can be
checked in the BMHD hunk. I've done this for importing sprite images into
my source code. 'type opt h' can be of help here, too.
