No need as all these palettes are already inbuilt! There are 4 system
palettes in the system and all are pre-set to the 4 old colourways.
And of course you can configure Qpac2 to use any of the 4 palettes,
just like before.

That's the "Shaded area" colour.

Probably application window colours.

You could add the smsq_gold_sysspr module to the SMSQ/E file, it
should override the other one, or use the code therein to create a
LRESPR extension. I think just the header has to be cut away for this
to work.

Or, simplest solution actually, just don't start in high colour mode
;-)
