What about colors 431, 495, and 382? They appear to be rendering as
solid colors.
(Note to self: colors 256, 273, 290, 307, 324, 341, 358, 375, 392,
409, 426, 443, 460, 477, 494, and 511 look solid because they are
dithering a solid color with itself.)

Cool. So you can dither the new colors with any of the 16 standard
solids, you just have to use the new color as the high-color. So
orange-on-white is 671.

| Yep, I can confirm they render as as solid. I have no idea why, but I'll try to look into it. Personally I'd like to switch over to a name-based color specification, since I'm still not sure what color I should use for trans-flourescent-green. Then (...) (26 years ago, 28-Oct-98, to lugnet.cad)
