Re: How do you make a DLL that can set the colour depth of a program ?

It is possible to set the monitor colour depth from a Euphoria program. A few years ago I came across a game called Hexy which does that, written by Mark K akita. This still works using Euphoria version 4.
Akita wrote wrappers around a "Simple Direct Media Layer" written by Sam Lantinga. Hexy appeared to use SDL_init, SDL_SetVideoMode and several more routines from this library. However, They are not documented with the Haxy release so I don't know how to use them.
The wrappers may be obtained separately from the game. I searched the archive for Akita. I found Sam Latinga's library on the web.
