Hi,
I've put up a small script that generates color definitions from Randall
Munroe's color survey for use with ConTeXt.[1] This yields 949 more rgb
colors that might be more adequately labeled than e.g. those from X11.
You can find it at < http://bitbucket.org/phg/xcs-colors/ >
From the usage notes:
--8<---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[1] Go somewhere safe, where you have writing permissions.
[2] texlua conv.lua > colo-xcs.tex
[3] For a preview, create a file “testcol.tex” with your favourite editor:
···· FILE testcol.tex ·························································
\setupcolor[xcs]
\setupcolors[state=start]
\starttext
\showcolor[xcs]
\stoptext
····· END testcol.tex ·························································
[4] context testcol.tex
--8<---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Have fun,
Philipp
