how can I use predefined colors or define colors on my own?

there is a color 'class' (integer red, green, blue), but what
are the ranges for these numbers ?

what happens if my display only offers 256 (prolly indexed)
colors? 

will the compiler convert colors or will they be adjusted at run-time ?

thanks
