2 | When I switched to TrueColor on my Linux box, I found that xfishtank just crash | |
3 | with a segmentation fault, how frustrating. Digging into the code, I found | |
4 | that it only support depths 1-8. Thanks to John Cwikla's article: | |

9 | I got xfishtank to support TrueColor. I've only tested it on Linux running | |
10 | XFree86-3.1.2 in 16 and 24 bpp. If anybody can get it to work on other | |
11 | platform or other video modes, please drop me a line. | |

13 | I have no idea what this version will do in DirectColor modes because I have | |
14 | no way of testing. This version ignores the -C (color limit) flag when running | |
15 | in > 8 bpp modes. There's no need for limitting the number of color in | |
16 | TrueColor modes right? | |

18 | You may use, redistribute this version as long as you keep all the READMEs and | |
19 | copyright stuff with the code. This is to ensure credit goes to those deserve. | |
20 | After all, I did not write this code. I only add TrueColor support. | |

22 | There no warranty of any kind. Use this code at your own risk. Don't blame me | |
23 | for any damage it may cause. Bugfixes and comments are welcome. | |

25 | Enjoy, | |
