Hi Mike, I made some objects to handle this in senderfruit/ (in extended) called color.rgb2pd24 (message color format) and color.rgb2pd18 (file color format). They both take lists of three RGB values scaled 0-1.
There's also color.hsl2rgb, which as you'd expect converts from HSL colorspace to RGB. HSL is useful for generating variants of a color (like a darker or lighter version).
