Re: [Fractdev] 6-bit to 8-bit color channels

I never quite realize that fractint cheaped out on the 256 color colormap in this way until I started digging in the code.

<LOL> Ahhh ... The VGA video DAC *has* just 6 bits per color channel. However Stone Soup has always been cheap, right about that! <g!> Seriously, we just saw no reason to keep around more bits than the video DAC could utilize. I presume this is moot if you are past the point of programming the DAC directly to rotate colors, as I'm sure you are. Tim
