NAME

       create_color_table  -  Fills  a  color  mapping table for customised effects. Allegro game
       programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       void create_color_table(COLOR_MAP *table, const PALETTE pal,  void  (*blend)(PALETTE  pal,
       int x, int y, RGB *rgb), void (*callback)(int pos));

DESCRIPTION

       Fills the specified color mapping table with lookup data for doing customised effects with
       the specified palette, calling the blend function to determine the results of  each  color
       combination.

       Your  blend  routine  will  be  passed a pointer to the palette and the two indices of the
       colors which are to be combined, and should fill in the RGB  structure  with  the  desired
       result  in  0-63 format. Allegro will then search the palette for the closest match to the
       RGB color that you requested, so it doesn't matter if the palette has no exact  match  for
       this color.

       If  the callback function is not NULL, it will be called 256 times during the calculation,
       allowing you to display a progress indicator. Example:

          COLOR_MAP greyscale_table;
          ...
          void return_grey_color(const PALETTE pal,
                                 int x, int y, RGB *rgb)
          {
             ...
          }
          ...
             /* Build a color lookup table for greyscale effect. */
             create_color_table(&greyscale_table, pal,
                                return_grey_color, NULL);
