1. Is it possible to take that ugly border out ?
I mean: How can I clean that frame that appears around the graphics
screen (I think the color of the frame change acording to the palette) ?
I think someone told how to do it a long time ago, but I can't find
this message anymore...
Thanks,

The border around the screen is simply color 16. Just change it to
black (or whatever) with the palette() command.
Hope this helps.

i don't have a very good answer but at least i have one... the only
i've found to avoid that is to set palette 16 to 0 because the border
is colour 16... sorry if that's not good enough :>

palette index 17 which is palette color 16 is the border culprit.
Quick fix is
--------------------------
--color = 16
--palette[color + 1] = {0, 0, 0}
palette[17] = {0, 0, 0}
all_palette(palette / 4)
--------------------------
What should be done is.
---------------------------
Remap all references to 16 in the image to an unused palette color
then copy palette[16+1] to palette[unused_color + 1].
palette[unused+1] = palette[17]
After that, set palette[16+1] to black {0, 0, 0}
palette[17] = {0, 0, 0}

The problem is that almost all the images in my program use the
palette entry 16 (17 in an Euphoria sequence) so when I set palette[17] to
{0,0,0}, these images are displayed incorrectly.
(All the images in my program have the same palette, where index 16
is red).
How can I fix this problem without having to change the index 16 to
black and reassigning this global palette to all the images ?
More exactly: Is there a fast way to change all references to color
17 to an unused color ?

Fast way ! Matter of opinion.
Easy way. YES
Read and make use of attached UUE file following sig.
I put this together a month or two ago. Do not remove the
part that says Release 1. This product is not yet complete.
When it is complete I will release it again with another release #.
This will allow you to know if you have the latest release or not.

If you have a sequence S, and you want to change value X to value Y:
S = S + (Y - X) * (S = X)
This will work for sequences of any size or depth, so you could
change an entire sequence of images at once like this.
A faster way that only works on a single image (a sequence of
sequences) is this:
function change(sequence s, atom x, atom y)
sequence one_row
for i = 1 to length(s) do
one_row = s[i]
for j = 1 to length(one_row) do
if one_row[j] = x then
one_row[j] = y
end if
end for
s[i] = one_row
end for
return s
end function
