NAME

Acme::AutoColor - automatic color names

SYNOPSIS

  use Acme::AutoColor;

  $red   = RED();    # 'ff0000'
  @green = GREEN();  # (0, 255, 0)

DESCRIPTION

This module uses an AUTOLOAD function which assumes unrecognized methods are color names.

Color names are case-insensitive, though style-wise one should probably use all capitals.

It returns a hex string or a an array of RGB triplets depending on the calling context.

Color schemes may be specified in the use line:

  use Acme::AutoColor qw( X HTML );

OCTARINE

Octarine is the discworlds eigth color. It can't actually displayed with a RGB color scheme, but as far as we know, its R, G and B components are all zero and O is 0xff. But you can use it anyway:

  $octarine   = OCTARINE();    # '000000ff'

Beware: Using OCTARINE() may - depending on your location, status as wizard and general thaumic background radiation levels - reconfigure your computer to display itself. This may result in damage to your system, secondary thaumic events, creatures from the dungeon dimensions appearing or the universe collapsing on itself.
