I was trying John Gruber's BBColors but once I get HTML, PHP and CSS
coloured the way I find most legible, it turns out Markdown files are
nearly unreadable. Kind of ironic, I know.
<http://daringfireball.net/projects/bbcolors/>
My problem is I don't understand using 1, 4 and 5 digit RGB notation
for RGB text colours. (it's not in the manual or on Gruber's site. I
only understand decimal and hexadecimal and had no luck with a search).
Q1: Can anyone provide a link or a brief explanation of this notation?
Q2: Also, BBEdit's Preferences allow 16 colours to be set, whereas
there are 27 colours mentioned in the BBColor plist file. Can anyone
explain this? Since I can't interpret the colour values I can only
guess at what the additional keys refer to and whether they're being
used.
The contents of my current BBColor plist file:
"Color:Background" = "rgb
(60909,60909,60652)";
"Color:CTagsIdentifier" = "rgb
(39321,0,26214)";

"Color:Comment" = "rgb
