Re: How do I read BMP file header directly to type?

Certainly, but you need to assign to `result`:
    
    
    proc loadBitmapFileHeader*(bitmap: Bitmap, file: FileStream): 
BitmapFileHeader =
        static:
            doAssert(cpuEndian == littleEndian)
        discard file.readData(result.addr, 14)
        bitmap.fileHeader = result
