It's easy enough to add them to /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt, but it looks as
if this file is then compiled into a database of some sort. SCO's X offers
a utility to do this compilation, but the resulting files don't work on
Linux. Is there an equivalent utility on Linux? I can't find it in
the man pages or the FAQs.
Help would be appreciated.
1. rgb.txt replaced by Xcms.txt?
It appears that /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt has been replaced by a file Xcms.txt in
the same directory. The slackware distribution that I got from the Info-Magic
CD-ROM (November 95) includes an Xcms.txt with only very few color names
defined. A few basic things like "blue" and "red" are there, but my all-time
favorits from rgb.txt e.g. "linen", "DarkGoldenrod", etc. are missing!
Does anybody know of a Xcms.txt that is backward-compatible with rgb.txt?
Thanks!
