Topic: X11 color names



  
 Color name - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There are also several color naming systems that have such a computational model, yet they oversimplify the interpretation of the HSI or HSV color spaces.
A computational system of naming colors can be quite complex, because humans perceive a color and name it in a complex way.
Generally, naming of colors involves a vocabulary and a grammatical syntax.

 X11 color names - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computing, on the X Window System, X11 color names are represented in a simple text file, which maps certain strings to RGB color values.
The first versions of Mosaic and Netscape Navigator used the X11 colors as the basis for the Web colors list, as both were originally X11 applications.
Despite this, graphic designers and others got used to them making it practically impossible to introduce a more stringent and logical alias list.

 CSS3 module: Color
User agents may default the 'flavor' color to the dominant accent color used on the physical machine/mechanism that the user is interacting with (frequently a mouse, keyboard, monitor and computer case, often just a laptop), if the UA is able to retrieve that information from the platform and machine.
The user agent searches the color profile description database for a color profile description entry whose name descriptor matches and uses the last matching entry that is found.
The computed value of a System Color keyword value is the keyword itself.

 Colors - Cascading Style Sheet Units of Measure
In the computer and publishing industries, many different syntaxes and methods have evolved to represent a color, whether it be by a conglomeration of color component values or by a friendly common name.
Netscape expanded this set of named colors in its version 2.0 browser to a standard set of 140 color names used for many years in the UNIX X11 environment.
A value of 0% represents the absence of a color component, while a value of 100% represents full presence of the color component.

These colors are safe to use and will not be altered by the computer's monitor.
Many people realized that these colors were rather limiting and so both Netscape and Internet Explorer created many more color names to use.
This method is the only way to exactly match, for example, the background to a certain color in an image.

 Colors
Of course, some computers cannot handle all of these colors, so many web pages are limited to 216 colors, and accomplish this by only recognizing combinations of numbers that use only the characters 0, 3, 6, 9, a, c, and f.
Finally, many computers are capable of displaying 16,777,216 colors, but this requires twenty four 1s and 0s for each pixel, and a staggering 7,372,800 bits for each image.
When discussing color and computers, you normally are discussing combining various values, or intensities, of red, green, and blue.

 The 216 Browser-safe colors
Today, the minority have them, so the justification for using the browser-safe palette has diminished greatly if you are developing your site for users who have current computer systems.

By "semi-standard", I mean that they are recognized by the leading brands of web browser software, but they have not yet been included in any official specification.

Browsers could be required to be able to convert colors using a lookup table for named colors, or read the method for that browsers language of choice to do rgb conversions.
I would think this should be optional, but would be very useful for using a standard css syntax for authoring programs.
For example, a Dreamweaver like program could offer custom color palettes from a company such as Crayola, create a color picker which would store the colors in this new css syntax, and then offer an rgb export conversion if most browsers did not support this optional color name profile.
