Careful! A *Windows* color value uses the high bit to indicate that the rest
is an index into the 'System Color Palette' and not a RGB value at all (In
Delphi you have ColorToRGB() to get the RGB value from such a 'color').
I'm not at all sure that you can successfully use the high byte in a
*Windows* .BMP, at least not with the standard routines for loading/saving
bitmaps.
