	I am programming my Calcomp Electrostatic plotter using Calcomp's UHCBS.
	Now, Calcomp provides a 1024 entry color palette and a 1024 entry pen palette
	but I want to set the pen palette identical to the color palette for as many
	colors as possible. I have RGB (or CYMB) values for the colors and I want to
	pass that on to the pens using the XSETPN call.

	So far I have been able to do that with the 8 solid colors only but I would
	like to have about 64 or 128 colors.

	Please send any responses to my e-mail address. If you have any information
	pertinent to my questions, please respond.

	Thanx.
