Color::Names - A comprehensive? list of named colors

SYNOPSIS
========

    use Color::Names;

    # a hash of normalized color names associated
    # with rgb values and a pretty name
    say Color.Names.color-data("X11");

    # you can mix sets, the later one wins in case of
    # name clashes
    say Color.Names.color-data("X11", "XKCD");

    use Color::Names::X11;
    say Color::Names::X11.color-data{'Aqua'};
    # --> { rgb => [0x00, 0xff, 0xff], name => 'Aqua' }

    use Color::Data::CSS3 :colors;
    say COLORS{'red'};
    # --> { rgb => [0xff, 0x00, 0x00], name => Red' }

DESCRIPTION
===========

You can choose from (currently) three color sets: X11, CSS3 and the [xkcd](https://xkcd.com/) set from the [xkcd color survey](https://xkcd.com/color/rgb/).

The X11 and CSS3 sets are basically [identical](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X11_color_names), except for 4 colors.

If you know about other lists of name/color pairs in use, please let me know.
