If you do what I suggest you can replace the code:

with:
gflLoadImageToVis(vis, "./author19.bmp");
and you have not added a bunch of kludgy bloat to the file target.
(gfl == GGI File Loader)

The ggiCheckMode() and ggiCrossBlit() in your program invokes
undefined behaviour, because you have not set a mode on file_vis.
If you did set a mode on file_vis it would be all black.
