[PD-dev] 'cnv' colors

[Luke Iannini]

Hi Mike,
I made some objects to handle this in senderfruit/ (in extended)
called color.rgb2pd24 (message color format) and color.rgb2pd18 (file
color format).  They both take lists of three RGB values scaled 0-1.

There's also color.hsl2rgb, which as you'd expect converts from HSL
colorspace to RGB.  HSL is useful for generating variants of a color
(like a darker or lighter version).

Cheers
Luke
