How to Draw a PCX image in C++ (PCXBGI), using graphics.h BGI library

LOAD A PCX ON SCREEN using the WinBGIDLL library.

Advantages:

• 5 resolution modes: 320×200, 640×400, 640×480, 800×600 and 1024×768.
• Works with 256 colors, you can change all the colors of the palette simultaneously with the Palette function, which is defined in the same library and works faster than the setpalette function that is included in graphics.h
• Uses all the WinBGI functions included in graphics.h, except that it does not accept XOR_PUT and similar modes….otherwise it is ok.
