If Voyager is on, for instance, an 8-bit screen it will select the best
256 colours for displaying the current images from the total 16 million.
You might force a palette by loading a table or image containing all 217
web colours immediately you start the program.

You can edit the 8 system colours in MUI by going to System->Public
Screen->Call Inspector
and in Workbench by going to Prefs->Palette.
They may well be different.

Running each program on its own screen works best with the screens menu
that comes in MCP, IMO. That gives you a real multitasking computer.
