		XColor color[];
		int ncolors;

     ARGUMENTS
	  color	    Specifies the pixel	and RGB	values or the color
		    name string	(for example, red).

	  color	    Specifies an array of color	definition structures
		    to be stored.

	  colormap  Specifies the colormap.

	  display   Specifies the connection to	the X server.

	  flags	    Specifies which red, green,	and blue components
		    are	set.

	  ncolors   Specifies the number of XColor structures in the
		    color definition array.

	  pixel	    Specifies the entry	in the colormap.

     DESCRIPTION
	  The XStoreColors function changes the	colormap entries of
	  the pixel values specified in	the pixel members of the
	  XColor structures.  You specify which	color components are
	  to be	changed	by setting DoRed, DoGreen, and/or DoBlue in
	  the flags member of the XColor structures.  If the colormap
	  is an	installed map for its screen, the changes are visible
	  immediately.	XStoreColors changes the specified pixels if
	  they are allocated writable in the colormap by any client,
	  even if one or more pixels generates an error.  If a speci-
	  fied pixel is	not a valid index into the colormap, a
	  BadValue error results.  If a	specified pixel	either is
	  unallocated or is allocated read-only, a BadAccess error
	  results.  If more than one pixel is in error,	the one	that
	  gets reported	is arbitrary.

	  XStoreColors can generate BadAccess, BadColor, and BadValue
	  errors.

	  The XStoreColor function changes the colormap	entry of the
	  pixel	value specified	in the pixel member of the XColor
	  structure.  You specified this value in the pixel member of
	  the XColor structure.	 This pixel value must be a read/write
	  cell and a valid index into the colormap.  If	a specified
	  pixel	is not a valid index into the colormap,	a BadValue
	  error	results.  XStoreColor also changes the red, green,
	  and/or blue color components.	 You specify which color com-
	  ponents are to be changed by setting DoRed, DoGreen, and/or
	  DoBlue in the	flags member of	the XColor structure.  If the
	  colormap is an installed map for its screen, the changes are
	  visible immediately.

	  XStoreColor can generate BadAccess, BadColor,	and BadValue
	  errors.

	  The XStoreNamedColor function	looks up the named color with
	  respect to the screen	associated with	the colormap and
	  stores the result in the specified colormap.	The pixel
	  argument determines the entry	in the colormap.  The flags
	  argument determines which of the red,	green, and blue	com-
	  ponents are set. You can set this member to the bitwise
	  inclusive OR of the bits DoRed, DoGreen, and DoBlue.	If the
	  color	name is	not in the Host	Portable Character Encoding
	  the result is	implementation dependent.  Use of uppercase or
	  lowercase does not matter.  If the specified pixel is	not a
	  valid	index into the colormap, a BadValue error results.  If
	  the specified	pixel either is	unallocated or is allocated
	  read-only, a BadAccess error results.

	  XStoreNamedColor can generate	BadAccess, BadColor, BadName,
	  and BadValue errors.

     DIAGNOSTICS
	  BadAccess A client attempted to free a color map entry that
		    it did not already allocate.

	  BadAccess A client attempted to store	into a read-only color
		    map	entry.

	  BadColor  A value for	a Colormap argument does not name a
		    defined Colormap.

	  BadName   A font or color of the specified name does not
		    exist.

	  BadValue  Some numeric value falls outside the range of
		    values accepted by the request.  Unless a specific
		    range is specified for an argument,	the full range
		    defined by the argument's type is accepted.	 Any
		    argument defined as	a set of alternatives can gen-
		    erate this error.
