Re: [AD] set_mask_color

[aj <aj@xxxxxxxxxx>]

i remember  years'n'years'n'years ago..  maybe way back in the 3.12 days..
i made the mask color for the 8 bit code a global var and then just set it 
to which ever value i wanted.
had to do something like  extern int _mask_color8;    somewhere..
hehhee.. funny thing is, that code from those days is probably still in the 
allegro src.
