I just realized that you can also specify rgb() using %'s, at least in
<stylesheet> (but apparently not as a direct parameter, which is a bug):
<canvas>
<stylesheet>
view { bgcolor: rgb(97%,89%,59%) }
</stylesheet>
<simplelayout axis="x" spacing="10"/>
<class name="box1" width="100" height="100"
bgcolor="$style{'bgcolor'}"/>
<class name="box2" width="100" height="100" bgcolor="iceblue1"/>
<box1 id="sun">
<text text="Sun"/>
</box1>
<box2 id="mystic">
<text fgcolor="0xFFFFFF" text="Mystic"/>
</box2>
</canvas>
Also, while poking around, I realized that colors.lzx is just a teeny
snippet, probably just created for a demo. And, our names do not
appear to correspond to any of the 'standard' named colors. It looks
like the names were copied from the X11 color list, but then totally
different values were used for the colors!
I found this interesting concordance: http://xona.com/colorlist/
