Pc-Paint uses the IBM BASIC BLOAD format. That is, it contains a 2-integer
address, 1 Integer size and 16K bytes of color information as described for
320 X 200 color graphics. For this application, one can ignore the first 
2 words, and use the second word for byte count. Then each nibble of the
remaining text represents a pixel color.
