gl_trisetcolorlookup(3)

NAME
gl_trisetcolorlookup, gl_trigetcolorlookup - manages a color lookup table for shadowing

SYNOPSIS
#include <triangle.h> void gl_trisetcolorlookup(int i, long color);
long gl_trigetcolorlookup(int i);

DESCRIPTION
gl_trisetcolorlookup sets the color of an index i in the table used in more than 256 color modes to interpolate tables. Note that it is your responsibility to set all the intermediate color values. You can use this function to create the index table, but remember not to let i go over 4096. gl_trigetcolorlookup retrieves a previously set value from the table. Beware, these functions are not a direct part of the svgalib library. Instead their source is part of svgalib and can be found in the threeDkit/ subdirectory of the original svgalib distribution. However, it is not installed in the system by default, s.t. it is unclear where you can find it if your svgalib was installed by some linux distribution. In case of any such problem, simply get an svgalib distribution from the net. Yo don't need to install it. Just make in the threeDkit/ subdirectory. As of this writing, svgalib-1.2.12.tar.gz is the latest version and can be retrieved by ftp from sunsite.unc.edu at /pub/Linux/libs/graphics and tsx-11.mit.edu at /pub/linux/sources/libs which will most probably be mirrored by a site close to you. The functions are defined in the tri.o and triangl.o files (or their resp. sources) which you must link to your program.
