Okay, more color questions: is it possible to just splash an 8-bit
bitmap to the screen, without having to do it color by color (ie,
with gray scale, I can preface a bitmap name with /-2/ to tell
Constructor to handle it as a 2-bit bitmap, but the same trick
doesn't work with /-8/.) Any
draw color bitmaps in Constructor, so could someone tell me, in begginers
terms, how to do color bitmaps. I think this would have to be done in the
actual code, and I'm okay with that, an example would be nice to.
