Re: Colors

[Paul E. Johnson]

You don't say what OS you use.  If you are in unix/linux, there is this
file that lists them:

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt

There are a few decent programs that can help with this. I think
"xcolorsel" worked the best for me before all my computers started
crashing :)

I recall also that the web page editor in netscape could be used as a
color browser.
