The J program I'm currently working on uses Plot for showing multiple
versions of stock prices simultaneously.  Hence, I need to
differentiate colors.  I'm familiar with some minimal "standard"
colors such as red, green, blue, etc., but some of those shades are
too light or too dark for my purposes.  I've hunted through the Plot
pages in the wiki, but, although there is a section or two that TALK
about colors, I can't seem to find any lists of names of colors such
as darkslateblue, preferably along with color samples for those names.
(I am not seeking to spend hours fiddling with RGB values when there
ought to be some sort of list available of many common color names,
nor am I seeking thousands of tiny shade differences that artists
might find useful.)  I seem to remember seeing such lists available
elsewhere, but I can't seem to find any for J.  Where can I find such
a list of color names that can be used in Plot (presumably built in)?
Thanks for your help!

Harvey
