vga_setpalette(3)             Svgalib User Manual            vga_setpalette(3)


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.

       This manual page was edited by Michael Weller <eowmob@exp-math.uni-

       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.
