NAME

       vga_setegacolor - set the current color

SYNOPSIS

       #include <vga.h>

       void vga_setegacolor(int color);

DESCRIPTION

       Set the current color to be a color resembling the color-th EGA coler. This works regardless of the depth of the current video mode.

       The color is used by vga_drawpixel(3) and vga_drawline(3).

       Valid values for color are:

       0      - black.
       1      - blue.
       2      - green.
       3      - cyan.
       4      - red.
       5      - magenta.
       6      - brown.
       7      - grey.
       8      - dark grey (light black).
       9      - light blue.
       10     - light green.
       11     - light cyan.
       12     - light red.
       13     - light magenta.
       14     - yellow (light brown).
       15     - white (light grey).

       The fun(6) and vgatest(6) demos show the basic use of this function.
