+.SH "NAME"
+SDL_SetColors\- Sets a portion of the colormap for the given 8-bit surface\&.
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.PP
+\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
+.sp
+\fBint \fBSDL_SetColors\fP\fR(\fBSDL_Surface *surface, SDL_Color *colors, int firstcolor, int ncolors\fR);
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+Sets a portion of the colormap for the given 8-bit surface\&.
+.PP
+When \fBsurface\fR is the surface associated with the current display, the display colormap will be updated with the requested colors\&. If \fBSDL_HWPALETTE\fP was set in \fISDL_SetVideoMode\fR flags, \fBSDL_SetColors\fP will always return \fB1\fR, and the palette is guaranteed to be set the way you desire, even if the window colormap has to be warped or run under emulation\&.
+.PP
+The color components of a \fI\fBSDL_Color\fR\fR structure are 8-bits in size, giving you a total of 256^3 =16777216 colors\&.
+.PP
+Palettized (8-bit) screen surfaces with the \fBSDL_HWPALETTE\fP flag have two palettes, a logical palette that is used for mapping blits to/from the surface and a physical palette (that determines how the hardware will map the colors to the display)\&. \fBSDL_SetColors\fP modifies both palettes (if present), and is equivalent to calling \fISDL_SetPalette\fR with the \fBflags\fR set to \fB(SDL_LOGPAL | SDL_PHYSPAL)\fP\&.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+.PP
+If \fBsurface\fR is not a palettized surface, this function does nothing, returning \fB0\fR\&. If all of the colors were set as passed to \fBSDL_SetColors\fP, it will return \fB1\fR\&. If not all the color entries were set exactly as given, it will return \fB0\fR, and you should look at the surface palette to determine the actual color palette\&.
+.SH "EXAMPLE"
