 +==== Description of getmaxcolor ==== 
 +<code c>
 +getmaxcolor returns the highest valid color value for the current
 +graphics driver and mode that can be passed to setcolor.
 +For example, on a 256K EGA, getmaxcolor always returns 15, which means
 +that any call to setcolor with a value from 0 to 15 is valid. On a CGA in
 +high-resolution mode or on a Hercules monochrome adapter, getmaxcolor
 +returns a value of 1.
 +  Windows Notes 
 +The winbgim version of getmaxcolor returns 15 for the maximum color.
 +However, in addition to the usual BGI colors (0 through 15), the
 +programmer may also use RGB_colors.
