NAME

       makecol15_dither, makecol16_dither - Calculates a dithered 15 or 16-bit
       RGB value. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       int makecol15_dither(int r, int g, int b, int x, int y);

       int makecol16_dither(int r, int g, int b, int x, int y);

DESCRIPTION

       Given both a color value and a pixel coordinate, calculate  a  dithered
       15  or  16-bit RGB value. This can produce better results when reducing
       images  from  truecolor  to  hicolor.  In  addition  to  calling  these
       functions directly, hicolor dithering can be automatically enabled when
       loading graphics by calling the  set_color_conversion()  function,  for
       example        set_color_conversion(COLORCONV_REDUCE_TRUE_TO_HI       |
       COLORCONV_DITHER).

       Example:

          int pixel1, pixel2;

          /* The following two color values MAY be different. */
          pixel1 = makecol16_dither(255, 192, 64, 0, 0);
          pixel2 = makecol16_dither(255, 192, 64, 1, 0);

RETURN VALUE

       Returns the RGB value dithered for the specified coordinate.
