I have just tested your prog.
It seems to me that you put for every pixel one quad. This produces an
enormous amount of bytes in a file. There was already a prog that was
called bmp2dat.
If you could rearrange the quads that are direct beside into one bigger
quad, then I would use your prog also for official files. But in the way
it is now I can't do that (3MB filesize for example).
