NAME

       bestfit_color - Finds a palette color fitting the requested RGB values.
       Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       int bestfit_color(const PALETTE pal, int r, int g, int b);

DESCRIPTION

       Searches the specified palette for the closest match to  the  requested
       color,  which  are  specified in the VGA hardware 0-63 format. Normally
       you should call makecol8() instead, but this lower level  function  may
       be  useful  if  you  need  to  use  a  palette other than the currently
       selected one, or specifically don't want  to  use  the  rgb_map  lookup
       table.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns the index of the palette for the closest match to the requested
       color.
