I want to use a custom pointer and want to set the colors explicitly,
intead of using the current preferences default.  The C language output
of "SpriteMaker" generates code that calls the routine SetRGB4() with
args (viewport, register, red, green, blue) - by the way, where is
this call documented???  Anyway, it sets registers 17, 18 and 19 to
my new sprite colors.  According to the Hardware (or was it technical)
reference manual, these are the color registers for sprite #1.

It doesn't seem to work.  I still get the default preferences pointer
colors for my new pointer.   Help!  Have you ever seen a little black
mouse with yellow ears???

Thanks for any answers!
