;;; Commentary:

;; Emacs support for colors evolved from the X Window System; color
;; support for character-based terminals came later.  Many Lisp
;; packages use color names defined by X and assume the availability
;; of certain functions that look up colors, convert them to pixel
;; values, etc.

;; This file provides a more or less useful emulation of the X color
;; functionality for character-based terminals, and thus relieves the
;; rest of Emacs from including special code for this case.

;; Here's how it works.  The support for terminal and MSDOS frames
;; maintains an alist, called `tty-defined-color-alist', which
;; associates colors supported by the terminal driver with small
;; integers.  (These small integers are passed to the library
;; functions which set the color, and are effectively indices of the
;; colors in the supported color palette.)  When Emacs needs to send a
;; color command to the terminal, the color name is first looked up in
;; `tty-defined-color-alist'.  If not found, functions from this file
;; can be used to map the color to one of the supported colors.
;; Specifically, the X RGB values of the requested color are extracted
;; from `color-name-rgb-alist' and then the supported color is found
;; with the minimal distance in the RGB space from the requested
;; color.

;; `tty-defined-color-alist' is created at startup by calling the
;; function `tty-color-define', defined below, passing it each
;; supported color, its index, and its RGB values.  The standard list
;; of colors supported by many Unix color terminals, including xterm,
;; FreeBSD, and GNU/Linux, is supplied below in `tty-standard-colors'.
;; If your terminal supports different or additional colors, call
;; `tty-color-define' from your `.emacs' or `site-start.el'.  For
;; more-or-less standard definitions of VGA text-mode colors, see the
;; beginning of lisp/term/pc-win.el.

;;; Code:

;; The following list is taken from rgb.txt distributed with X.
;;
;; WARNING: Some colors, such as "lightred", do not appear in this
;; list.  If you think it's a good idea to add them, don't!  The
;; problem is that the X-standard definition of "red" actually
;; corresponds to "lightred" on VGA (that's why pc-win.el and
;; w32-fns.el define "lightred" with the same RGB values as "red"
;; below).  Adding "lightred" here would therefore create confusing
;; and counter-intuitive results, like "red" and "lightred" being the
;; same color.  A similar situation exists with other "light*" colors.
;;
;; Nevertheless, "lightred" and other similar color names *are*
;; defined for the MS-DOS and MS-Windows consoles, because the users
;; on those systems expect these colors to be available.
;;
;; For these reasons, package maintaners are advised NOT to use color
;; names such as "lightred" or "lightblue", because they will have
;; different effect on different displays.  Instead, use "red1" and
;; "blue1", respectively.
