See IFFChunk-class and references for more information

Details
The Interchange File Format stores information compartmentally in separate
containers called `chunks'. This file demonstrates how a bitmap image
is stored in this format. In addition to the raw bitmap data, the file
also contains meta-information on the bitmap dimensions, its colour palette and
the display mode that should be used on an Amiga. See also
interpretIFFChunk, IFFChunk-class
and the example for bitmapToRaster.
