Windows 2-bit 256x192 .BMP to Spectrum .SCR converter

There are lots of programs for converting Windows bitmap files to a Spectrum but this is the only one I know of that actually runs on the Spectrum. Actually I know of some others, but they are not available on-line.

Just save your 1-bit 256x192 BMP file as normal, and load it into Spectrum memory at 4000h (16384). If your emulator won't let you do this directly then you can always change the extension to .SCR and load it as a screen file (providing having a slightly too short file doesn't corrupt your emulator).

If having a slightly too short file *does* corrupt your emulator you will need to add the file 704BYTES.BIN to the end of your .BMP file to make it the correct length.
