Usage: txt2bmp <icon.txt >tAIB03e9.bin
Actually it will do any size bitmap. Check the headers for format info
#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
unsigned int w, h, r, a1, a2, a3, a4, a5;
unsigned char row[256], o;
int i, j;
gets(row);
sscanf(row,"%d %d %d %d %d %d %d %d", &w, &h, &r, &a1, &a2, &a3, &a4, &a5);
putchar(w >> 8);
putchar(w);
putchar(h >> 8);
putchar(h);
putchar(r >> 8);
putchar(r);
putchar(a1 >> 8);
putchar(a1);
putchar(a2 >> 8);
putchar(a2);
putchar(a3 >> 8);
putchar(a3);
putchar(a4 >> 8);
putchar(a4);
putchar(a5 >> 8);
putchar(a5);
while (h--) {
memset(row,0,w);
gets(row);
for (i = 0; i < r; i++) {
for (o = 0, j = 7; j >= 0; j--)
o |= (row[i * 8 + 7 - j] & 1) << j;
putchar(o);
}
}
}
