Default Get a color name from any RGB combination?


"GS" wrote in message

I found this was a needed feature since Charlotte's link color names list
has, for example, both "Aqua" and "Cyan" with the same RGB values. Thus
I've 'removed' "Cyan" for now since it's a standard color. (the list
should only have non-standard names to start with, IMO, leaving inclusions
up to the end user)


Why only non standard names, isn't that for the user to decide. If there are
duplicates maybe return both, eg return "Aqua = Cyan". Indeed it's not
unusual for colour lists to include 2+ names that refer to the same RGB, and
in the case of this list there are are many duplicates besides cyan.
