This was fixed in later versions of Jmol, which we call the 
"prototype" or 11.0 beta or bob200603 branch.

Scripting:

   color selectionHalo  [color]

(I forgot to document this; may be only in the 11.0 beta prototype.)

It was a bug.

It's Viewer.setSelectionArgb(int argb), which takes a standard rgb 
integer. If you have a color name as a string, you can use:

Viewer.setSelectionArgb(Graphics3D.getArgbFromColorName(colorname))


I would encourage you to use the bob200603 branch, not 10.2. It is the 
active development branch, and we are getting ready to release it as 
11.0 very soon, so all the testing we can get on that now would be 
appreciated.
