[R] mapping of colornames into hsv: half way done
Ok,
now we have the mapping of color names to color codes (see below) and
conversion to rgb (something like Ben Bolker's function), but how to convert
rgb to hsv?
Thanks to Brian Ripley, Peter Dalgaard and Ben Bolker
Details below
Regards
Jens
etc/colors.big maps 455 names to rgb in S syntax
etc/rgb.txt maps 657 names to rgb in C syntax, but unlike colors() it has
mixed upper and lower case
The C source has the information twice
rgb.c maps 657 names to rgb (mixed upper and lower case)
graphics.c maps 657 names tp colorstrings (lower case only)
internal name2col() and R colors() accesses those in graphics.c
Here is the color representations from graphics.c in R code

h2 <- which(hexvec==substr(color,i*2+3,i*2+3))-1
rgb[i+1] <- h1*16+h2
}
rgb
}
On the long run, using the internal name2col is probably preferable over
duplicating the representation.
