Well, not even Csaba Biegel can, since the GrWhite() function he 
includes in his GRX library has the same problem. It simply produces 
dark gray. This happens only, when I enter GrSetRGBMode(), but not when 
using the adapterŽs standard colors. GrSetRGBMode explicitely sets 
CLRINFO->white to CLRINFO->ncolors-1, which returns the number IŽd 
expect for White (0xFF in 256 color mode). Therefor the problem IMHO 
must be some error in the way a color is calculated from R,G and B 
values in GrSetRGBMode as well as in GrSetColor.
Maybe someone finds the bux and fixes it, IŽm looking forward to it.
