	If you want to experiment to find out the data format of getimage()
you can save a solid-color area of the screen with it (color zero is ideal)
and then view the memory where the pointer for the image points to.  Check
the first few bytes or so.  It should contain at least width and height data.
The rest of the data should be all the same values representing the solid-
colored area saved.
