yes! :P look at the Burning source code:

this does exactly this, and i wrote this program EXACTLY for this

of course, ensure your palette matches the system palette :P
the latest version of pilrc, has rgb->index mapping values for color
bitmaps so it will match the closest system color index for your
(r,g,b) values
