That's strange, this link:
http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/docs/palmos/Bitmap.html#998439
takes me straight to the BmpCompress() function and the OS5 verbage is
clearly listed there.

My app has a signature box.  Works fine under 4.0 and below.  On 5.0, the
signature box is filled with static garbage.  At first I thought it might be
a problem going from a monochrome (i.e. 1 bit) pixel depth to the 16-bit
depth.  After verifying everything it was doing including the bit data, it
just appeard that the function just was not working properly.  At least,
that is what it seems to be happening.
