Hi,
Can someome please help me with this PCX displaying source.  It
works for one image, a friend sent, but others don't work.  WHY?
It seems right to me.

I've been looking for a PCX displaying source in DJGPP & GRX
and now that I have it, it doesn't work.

NOTE:  I won't be using 320x200 images only.  I might be using a 
       smaller size.

Here's the source.  PLEASE HELP!
