16 Ugly hack for use in various dodgy situations where you need to convert
17 between paletted and truecolor image formats. Sets the internal palette
18 table in the same way as the set_palette() function, so the conversion
19 will use the specified palette, but without affecting the display hard‐
20 ware in any way. The previous palette settings are stored in an inter‐
21 nal buffer, and can be restored by calling unselect_palette(). If you
22 call select_palette() again, however, the internal buffer will be over‐
23 written.
