The BSV Babel PAL format

The PAL format used in BSV Babel contains no information except RGB (red, green & blue) shades, representing colours. The length of any PAL file created by BSV Babel must be a multiple of 3 bytes. Note that the maximum length of a generated PAL file is 768 bytes (256 colours * 3 bytes per colour), although additional data will be ignored by the program.

Example: A 5 colour palette file would look like this:

Byte no. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
Data R1 G1 B1 R2 G2 B2 R3 G3 B3 R4 G4 B4 R5 G5 B5
