## Package `xcolor` by Dr. Uwe Kern
Version 2022-06-12 v2.14
Maintained by the LaTeX Project https://github.com/latex3/xcolor/issues
`xcolor` provides easy driver-independent access to several kinds of
colors, tints, shades, tones, and mixes of arbitrary colors by means of
color expressions like \color{red!50!green!20!blue}.
It allows to select a document-wide target color model and offers tools
for automatic color schemes, conversion between nine color models,
alternating table row colors, color blending and masking, color
separation, and color wheel calculations.

## Notes
- `xcolor1.tex` should run with both LaTeX and pdfLaTeX, it yields a
50-page document with several systematic color conversion examples
- `xcolor2.tex` is a 3-page `pstricks` example document that won't run
with pdfLaTeX
- `xcolor3.tex` is a 2-page example for demonstrating several display
and logging facilities
- `xcolor4.tex` is a 1-page driver test file;
uncomment the relevant code line in the header and run it with the
appropriate program, e.g., `latex xcolor4` or any other processor;
apply any desired post-processing like dvips, dvipdfm, etc.
- If the file `xcolor.ins` is missing, run `latex xcolor.dtx` once
and quit the LaTeX compiler as soon as the first error message
appears.
