- Palette Play Version 1.0
-
- This program allows an easy visual way to change the
- colors of the EGA or VGA palette. The program starts out by showing you
- the default palette of colors. By moving the left or right arrow keys you
- select which palette entry to change (1-15). I did not include an option to
- change palette entry zero because black is one of those colors you find using
- in every application. Now press either up or down arrow keys and the palette
- entry will increase (up arrow) or decrease (down arrow) the color number.
- Color numbers are in the range of 0 to 63 (the 64 colors of the EGA and VGA).
- When you are happy with the colors you have chosen press F9 to write a small
- code segment to allow your Turbo Pascal program to set the colors. Another
- job that I wrote is included to merge the code into the program of your
- choice. I hope that this cures those "default color blues". It is great
- being able to see the colors you will be using in your next EGA or VGA
- program before you actually start coding.

- *** One problem which may be bothersome is if you have a virus ***
- *** protection that stops the program if an attempt to write to ***
- *** the hard disk is made. Just put the job on floppy and run it ***
- *** to avoid the problem. ***
