NAME
       vga_setpalette - set a color in the color lookup table

SYNOPSIS
       #include <vga.h>

       void vga_setpalette(int index, int r, int g, int b);

DESCRIPTION
       Set  the  current  color  with index index to RGB values r, g, and b, each in the range 0 - 63. This function is only sensible in 16 or 256
       color modes. It selects which color all vga_setcolor(index) drawn pixels will actually refer to.

       Note that setting color 0 will modify the background color and that setting any color in range  0  ..  15  will	affect	the  operation	of
       vga_setegacolor(3).

       If the VGA_CLUT8 feature is set for the current mode with vga_ext_set(3) the r, g, and b values are in the range 0 - 255.

       The vgatest(6) demo shows the basic use of this function.

AUTHOR
       This manual page was edited by Michael Weller <eowmob@exp-math.uni-essen.de>. The exact source of the referenced function as well as of the
       original documentation is unknown.

       It is very likely that both are at least to some extent are due to Harm Hanemaayer <H.Hanemaayer@inter.nl.net>.

       Occasionally  this might be wrong. I hereby asked to be excused by the original author and will happily accept any additions or corrections
       to this first version of the svgalib manual.
