One Possible Answer:  You might try looking through _BIT-MAPPED GRAPHICS_ by
Steve Rimmer and published by Windcrest Publishers of Blue Ridge Summit, PA.
The information concerning the file formats is decent, but in an effort to
allow the code to be compaitble everywhere (there are several listings of
PC & Mac assembly and C code) the author has taken a number of liberties
that I don't necessarily agree with.  Anyway, Enjoy...
