-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.ZN XAllocColor
-function allocates a read-only colormap entry corresponding to the closest
-RGB value supported by the hardware.
-.ZN XAllocColor
-returns the pixel value of the color closest to the specified
-RGB elements supported by the hardware
-and returns the RGB value actually used.
-The corresponding colormap cell is read-only.
-In addition,
-.ZN XAllocColor
-returns nonzero if it succeeded or zero if it failed.
-.IN "Color map"
-.IN "Color" "allocation"
-.IN "Allocation" "colormap"
-.IN "read-only colormap cells"
-Multiple clients that request the same effective RGB value can be assigned
-the same read-only entry, thus allowing entries to be shared.
-When the last client deallocates a shared cell, it is deallocated.
-.ZN XAllocColor
-does not use or affect the flags in the
-.ZN XColor
-structure.
-.LP
-.ZN XAllocColor
-can generate a
-.ZN BadColor
-error.
-.LP
-The
-.ZN XAllocNamedColor
-function looks up the named color with respect to the screen that is
-associated with the specified colormap.
-It returns both the exact database definition and
-the closest color supported by the screen.
-The allocated color cell is read-only.
-The pixel value is returned in screen_def_return.
-If the color name is not in the Host Portable Character Encoding,
-the result is implementation-dependent.
-Use of uppercase or lowercase does not matter.
-If screen_def_return and exact_def_return
-point to the same structure, the pixel field will be set correctly,
-but the color values are undefined.
-.ZN XAllocNamedColor
-returns nonzero if a cell is allocated;
-otherwise, it returns zero.
-.LP
-.ZN XAllocNamedColor
-can generate a
-.ZN BadColor
-error.
-.LP
-.EQ
-delim %%
-.EN
-The
-.ZN XAllocColorCells
-function allocates read/write color cells.
-The number of colors must be positive and the number of planes nonnegative,
-or a
-.ZN BadValue
-error results.
-If ncolors and nplanes are requested,
-then ncolors pixels
-and nplane plane masks are returned.
-No mask will have any bits set to 1 in common with
-any other mask or with any of the pixels.
-By ORing together each pixel with zero or more masks,
-ncolors * %2 sup nplanes% distinct pixels can be produced.
-All of these are
-allocated writable by the request.
-For
-.ZN GrayScale
-or
-.ZN PseudoColor ,
-each mask has exactly one bit set to 1.
-For
-.ZN DirectColor ,
-each has exactly three bits set to 1.
-If contig is
-.ZN True
-and if all masks are ORed
-together, a single contiguous set of bits set to 1 will be formed for
-.ZN GrayScale
-or
-.ZN PseudoColor
-and three contiguous sets of bits set to 1 (one within each
-pixel subfield) for
-.ZN DirectColor .
-The RGB values of the allocated
-entries are undefined.
-.ZN XAllocColorCells
-returns nonzero if it succeeded or zero if it failed.
-.LP
-.ZN XAllocColorCells
-can generate
-.ZN BadColor
-and
-.ZN BadValue
-errors.
-.LP
-.EQ
-delim %%
-.EN
-The specified ncolors must be positive;
-and nreds, ngreens, and nblues must be nonnegative,
-or a
-.ZN BadValue
-error results.
-If ncolors colors, nreds reds, ngreens greens, and nblues blues are requested,
-ncolors pixels are returned; and the masks have nreds, ngreens, and
-nblues bits set to 1, respectively.
-If contig is
-.ZN True ,
-each mask will have
-a contiguous set of bits set to 1.
-No mask will have any bits set to 1 in common with
-any other mask or with any of the pixels.
-For
-.ZN DirectColor ,
-each mask
-will lie within the corresponding pixel subfield.
-By ORing together
-subsets of masks with each pixel value,
-ncolors * %2 sup (nreds+ngreens+nblues)% distinct pixel values can be produced.
-All of these are allocated by the request.
-However, in the
-colormap, there are only ncolors * %2 sup nreds% independent red entries,
-ncolors * %2 sup ngreens% independent green entries,
-and ncolors * %2 sup nblues% independent blue entries.
-This is true even for
-.ZN PseudoColor .
-When the colormap entry of a pixel
-value is changed (using
-.ZN XStoreColors ,
-.ZN XStoreColor ,
-or
-.ZN XStoreNamedColor ),
-the pixel is decomposed according to the masks,
-and the corresponding independent entries are updated.
-.ZN XAllocColorPlanes
-returns nonzero if it succeeded or zero if it failed.
-.LP
-.ZN XAllocColorPlanes
-can generate
-.ZN BadColor
-and
-.ZN BadValue
-errors.
-.LP
-The
-.ZN XFreeColors
-function frees the cells represented by pixels whose values are in the
-pixels array.
-The planes argument should not have any bits set to 1 in common with any of the
-pixels.
-The set of all pixels is produced by ORing together subsets of
-the planes argument with the pixels.
-The request frees all of these pixels that
-were allocated by the client (using
-.IN XAllocColor
-.IN XAllocNamedColor
-.IN XAllocColorCells
-.IN XAllocColorPlanes
-.ZN XAllocColor ,
-.ZN XAllocNamedColor ,
-.ZN XAllocColorCells ,
-and
-.ZN XAllocColorPlanes ).
-Note that freeing an
-individual pixel obtained from
-.ZN XAllocColorPlanes
-may not actually allow
-it to be reused until all of its related pixels are also freed.
-Similarly,
-a read-only entry is not actually freed until it has been freed by all clients,
-and if a client allocates the same read-only entry multiple times,
-it must free the entry that many times before the entry is actually freed.
-.LP
-All specified pixels that are allocated by the client in the colormap are
-freed, even if one or more pixels produce an error.
-If a specified pixel is not a valid index into the colormap, a
-.ZN BadValue
-error results.
-If a specified pixel is not allocated by the
-client (that is, is unallocated or is only allocated by another client)
-or if the colormap was created with all entries writable (by passing
-.ZN AllocAll
-to
-.ZN XCreateColormap ),
-a
-.ZN BadAccess
-error results.
-If more than one pixel is in error,
-the one that gets reported is arbitrary.
-.LP
-.ZN XFreeColors
-can generate
-.ZN BadAccess ,
-.ZN BadColor ,
-and
-.ZN BadValue
-errors.
-.SH DIAGNOSTICS
-.TP 1i
-.ZN BadAccess
-A client attempted
-to free a color map entry that it did not already allocate.
-.TP 1i
-.ZN BadAccess
-A client attempted
-to store into a read-only color map entry.
-.TP 1i
-.ZN BadColor
-A value for a Colormap argument does not name a defined Colormap.
-.TP 1i
-.ZN BadValue
-Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request.
-Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined
-by the argument's type is accepted. Any argument defined as a set of
-alternatives can generate this error.
