I can see the benifits of this suggestion, however makecol is a
function which (in my case, at least) is often used as a function
parameter. Like so:

line(bmp, x1, y1, x2, y2, makecol(0, 255, 0));

In that case I prefer the function name to be a short as possible, so
I would not object to leaving the abbreviation in. I would even prefer

al_color(r, g, b)

as it is .. shorter :-)
