It does allocate colours (see my other reply).

It doesn't necessarily set all colours upon opening. Not if you enable
palette sharing for the screen (SA_SharePens).

Yes, if you modify pens which are in use. But you're not really allowed
to do that!

I'd imagine that 99% of all programs use ObtainBestPen. You may only use
LoadRGB() if you've allocated private pens (or if you're dealing with
your own custom screen).
