     Allows the red, green, and blue components associated with each of
     a set of color registers to be read in one operation. The color
     list returned in the caller's buffer consists of a series of
     3-byte entries corresponding to the color registers. Each 3-byte
     entry contains the register's red, green, and blue components in
     that order.
