Shell colors are the first 8 (0-7) and I`ve never heard that this is not the case. Do you use FullPalette to set/change/check your palette?

Hi,
I didn't know that the colours are different to the default as the A1200 I am using is 2nd hand from EBay. It came with a lot of WB enhancements, but I don't think it is running MagicWB. In any case my code needs to allow for users to have changed the colours to whatever they wish - hence my feeble attempts to find the most red, green etc.
I don't use fullpalette (just Googled it - useful tool
)just the stock prefs.
I basically have 2 problems here.
First my code is getting different colours from those I expect so I'll see if fullpaltte can show me where colours 4-7 are coming from.
Second its setting the most red to colour 6 (which is a sort of orange) and is very close in gamma to the grey background - making it almost impossible to read any figures using it. I think I'm going to have to work out how to calculate the grey equivalent of a colour so this does not happen but have no idea how to do this - I suspect finding the simple average of red,green and blue wont work.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can find the grey scale equivalent of a colour?
