Sure. As in SCI0, Graph() and other functions accept color
indices. The usual approach is to load a system palette at startup and
ask the interpreter for the indices of such colors (actually, I think
that 999.PAL is loaded automatically by the interpreter). Later
versions of SCI (SCI1.1 and SCI32) allow you to embed special tags in
the text to alter the text attributes in the middle of a string.
