I will look at it.  But my work has nothing to do with manual user color 
management.  I am working on deeply semantic pattern logic.  I think it is way 
past time for computers to know enough to try to know.  Crazy to have all of 
this computational power and for it to do no more than it did 20 years ago 
(just faster).  My code needs to know in dreadfully simple and obvious terms 
what a color of a pixel and how that changes as one moves away from it.  This 
is to imagery what phonems are to spoken language.  I really dont care what 
color a pixel has, just how that is different from other pixels near by.  I 
need as much that i can compare as posible,  Knowing the hue and the brightness 
is a start.  I would like to know the minimum noumber of pure colors it would 
take to make that pixels color... To colors what factoring is to numbers.  That 
would help.  Not with the primary colors.  Cause that seems realy arbitary (and 
yes i have heard of newton).   Anyway, i am convinced that i can do enough with 
hue and brightness for a start, what i might have to do is distill just the 
color component from RGB but keep it in three color values (just without the 
brightness component).  I will work on it and get back to the group.

Subject: re: RGB values for a color name

I've put up a one-card stack at

http://www.whitefeather.com/tools/colormehexed/

which consolidates some color management stuff I've been working on for the
past several months. Jacque Gay, Alex Tweedly, and Chipp Walters were
unwitting contributors. (Advisory: I haven't looked at this stack on
Windows.)

My primary task has been to convert between RGB and Hex, as well as publish
HTML pages with specific colors, so that's mostly what the thing helps with,
but there is a Color Names menu.

Plus, the Apple Mac OS X Color Picker (answer color) contributes some extra
help. Today, I found a really excellent article on that Color Picker by
Robin Wood

http://www.robinwood.com/Catalog/Technical/OtherTuts/MacColorPicker/MacColorPicker.html

which suggests much more that could be done!
