However, as soon as there is the intention to use +these colors outside the LaTeX world (e.g. website construction or +drawing programs), the parameters suddenly gain importance. +For each color name, we display +- the color itself plus the name of the underlying model, +- a 50%-tint (mixture with `white'), +- a 50%-tone (mixture with `gray'), +- a 50%-shade (mixture with `black'), +- and the complementary color. +Additionally, for the base colors defined by the `xcolor' package, also +all 50%-mixes of base color pairs are included. + + +Distribution +============ +(c) Copyright 2004 by Uwe Kern.
