Why not use a librarry, like allegro ( allegro.cc / alleg.sf.net ) it is
very portable across sytems. It have a save_bitmap function. Or read
it's source code.

Or simply code it yourself. It is not really that hard. BMP file format
specification? Well, google is your friend; "BMP file format" should
give you at least a couple of good descriptions.
