Color palette?

[Matze82]

Helle everyone,

well, after a break of some years I'm affected with keen a little bit.... (to be honest, my it was my girlfriends fault ;) ).

Maybe it's somewhere in here, but I would like to ask for the color palette to edit the graphics. Which RGB-values do the colors have?

Thanks in advance,
Matze

Keen itself uses a 0-63 value for the colours which are as follows:

00 00 00 #black
00 00 42 #blue
00 42 00 #green
00 42 42 #cyan
42 00 00 #red
42 00 42 #magenta
42 21 00 #brown
42 42 42 #bright gray
21 21 21 #gray
21 21 63 #bright blue
21 63 21 #bright green
21 63 63 #bright cyan
63 21 21 #bright red
63 21 63 #pink
63 63 21 #yellow
63 63 63 #white

Just take these numbers times 4 to get an rgb value:

e.g.: White would be 252 252 252, bright green 84 252 84 and so on.
