Sorry, sent this one with the wrong subject first time
So would it as simple as to just set the value in the source code after I
read in the bitmap family or do I have to do something else to make it work?

4-bit color was my baby :)
it was never designed to have a transparent index, and, it never
will *grin* - i put BITMAPFAMILYSPECIAL in there for two reasons:
a) my ease (no more hack for it)
b) to show developers how they can map bitmaps to their own palettes
4bit color is only 16 color :) you really dont need transparency
here, if you want transparency? use a mask :) only 8bit bitmaps
support transparency in pilrc - if you want it, you'll have to
do a source mod :)
