gl_trisetcolorlookup(3)Svgalib User Manualgl_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  inter-
       mediate 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 distri-
       bution 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 mir-
       rored 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 pro-
       gram.
