Re: [racket-users] saving a BMP in racket
I've updated `racket/draw` to restore support for writing BMP files.

I just took a quick 1-minute look at the respective wikipedia pages for PNGs and BMPs, and it appears that although in principle BMP can support things that PNG cannot (e.g., arbitrary bit-depth color channels), a PNG is not likely to lose any of the information associated with a racket bitmap%, meaning that generating a PNG and then converting it to a BMP using an external utility should produce the same result as directly creating a BMP. Granted, it’s not as convenient. Given this, would you consider this issue resolved if the word “yet” was simply removed from the error message? I’ve reworded this error message and pushed the change; I will cheerfully revert it if anyone objects.
