=head2 new

B<new(FILENAME, [TYPE, X, Y, FLAGS])>

Creates a new Bitmap object reading from FILENAME; all other arguments
are optional. TYPE can be:

  0  bitmap (this is the default)
  1  icon
  2  cursor

You can eventually specify your desired size for the image with X and
Y and pass some FLAGS to the underlying LoadImage API (at your own risk)

If FILENAME is a string, then it is first tried as a resource
name, then a filename.  If FILENAME is a number it is tried
as a resource identifier.

Resources are searched for in the current exe (perl.exe unless
you have packed your application using perl2exe, PAR or similar),
then in the Win32::GUI GUI.dll, and finally as an OEM resource
identifier

See also the L<common options|Win32::GUI::Reference::Options>.
