<p>
In a truecolor video mode the red, green, and blue components for each pixel
are packed directly into the color value, rather than using a palette lookup
table. In a 15-bit mode there are 5 bits for each color, in 16-bit modes
there are 5 bits each of red and blue and six bits of green, and both 24 and
32-bit modes use 8 bits for each color (the 32-bit pixels simply have an
extra padding byte to align the data nicely). The layout of these components
can vary depending on your hardware, but will generally either be RGB or
BGR. Since the layout is not known until you select the video mode you will
be using, you must call set_gfx_mode() before using any of the following
routines!

These functions convert colors from a hardware independent form (red,
green, and blue values ranging 0-255) into various display dependent
pixel formats. Converting to 15, 16, 24, or 32-bit formats only takes a
few shifts, so it is fairly efficient. Converting to an 8-bit color
involves searching the palette to find the closest match, which is quite
slow unless you have set up an RGB mapping table (see below). Example:
<blockquote class="code"><pre>
/* 16 bit color version of green. */
int green_color = <a href="#makecol16" class="autotype" title="Converts an RGB value into a display dependent pixel format.">makecol16</a>(0, 255, 0);</pre></blockquote>
<p><b>Return value:</b>
Returns the requested RGB triplet in the specified color depth.

Converts an RGBA color into a 32-bit display pixel format, which includes
an alpha (transparency) value. There are no versions of this routine for
other color depths, because only the 32-bit format has enough room to
store a proper alpha channel. You should only use RGBA format colors as
the input to draw_trans_sprite() or draw_trans_rle_sprite() after calling
set_alpha_blender(), rather than drawing them directly to the screen.

Converts colors from a hardware independent format (red, green, and blue
values ranging 0-255) to the pixel format required by the current video
mode, calling the preceding 8, 15, 16, 24, or 32-bit makecol functions as
appropriate. Example:
<blockquote class="code"><pre>
/* Regardless of color depth, this will look green. */
int green_color = <a href="#makecol" class="autotype" title="Converts an RGB value into the current pixel format.">makecol</a>(0, 255, 0);</pre></blockquote>

Convert RGBA colors into display dependent pixel formats. In anything
less than a 32-bit mode, these are the same as calling makecol() or
makecol_depth(), but by using these routines it is possible to create
32-bit color values that contain a true 8 bit alpha channel along with
the red, green, and blue components. You should only use RGBA format
colors as the input to draw_trans_sprite() or draw_trans_rle_sprite()
after calling set_alpha_blender(), rather than drawing them directly to
the screen.
<p><b>Return value:</b>
Returns the requested RGBA quadruplet.

Given both a color value and a pixel coordinate, calculate a dithered 15
or 16-bit RGB value. This can produce better results when reducing images
from truecolor to hicolor. In addition to calling these functions
directly, hicolor dithering can be automatically enabled when loading
graphics by calling the set_color_conversion() function, for example
set_color_conversion(COLORCONV_REDUCE_TRUE_TO_HI | COLORCONV_DITHER).

Example:
<blockquote class="code"><pre>
int pixel1, pixel2;
/* The following two color values MAY be different. */
pixel1 = <a href="#makecol16_dither" class="autotype" title="Calculates a dithered 15 or 16-bit RGB value.">makecol16_dither</a>(255, 192, 64, 0, 0);

Table mapping palette index colors (0-255) into whatever pixel format is
being used by the current display mode. In a 256-color mode this just
maps onto the array index. In truecolor modes it looks up the specified

appropriate packed pixel format. Example:
