Apple has published a lot of documentation on PICT files since color
capability came, (i.e. Mac II).  There are several Tech Notes on it too
I believe.  However, all you need to do is to write out a 512 byte header
of all zeroes and then write out the Picture.  Make sure the file type is
PICT of course.
