That program is meant to be compiled with DJGPP. Use the version meant to compile with Borland compilers: http://www.brackeen.com/home/vga/source/bc31/bitmap.c.html

Better yet, stop using such an old compiler and get Dev-C++ and install the SDL (which has built-in support for .BMP files, and with SDL_Image supports .pngs, .jpegs, .tiffs, and many others).

Separate codes aregiven for DJGPP

I realize that, but I thought you didn't, because you said

and linked to the DJGPP version.

Does the Borland version work?
