That is correct, with the caveat that "a tile w/o foreground" is a tile with coloured sub-rects, i.e. a non-monochrome tile. It's perfectly reasonable to have a series of monochrome tiles of which only the first specifies a foreground colour.

[snip] One might also consider a lack of motive born of lack of personal involvement in the RFC process as a less sinister explanation. Or does that sound too absurd? ;) Cheers, -- Wez @ RealVNC Ltd P.S.
