NAME

       vga_getpalvec - gets colors from the color lookup table

SYNOPSIS

       #include <vga.h>

       int vga_getpalvec(int start, int num, int *pal);

DESCRIPTION

       Gets  the  num  colors starting with index start from the color lookup table and stores the RGB values in
       *pal. *pal contains 3 * num integers which are the color values from first to last palette entry  in  the
       order red, green, blue (always three consecutive entries in *pal built a palette entry.

       Each  color  entry  is in range 0 - 63. This function is only sensible in 16 or 256 color modes. It shows
       which color all vga_setcolor(start) (and num - 1 following colors) drawn pixels will actually refer to.

       If the VGA_CLUT8 feature is set for the current mode with vga_ext_set(3) the red, green, and blue  values
       are in the range 0 - 255.

       The function returns the value of num.
