Improvement (?) of documentation: color_list

[Maximilian Wendenburg]

Hello,

as I'm working a lot with Scilab I'd like to contribute sth. back to
the community.

I miss a color sample in the "color_list" manual page -- so here I
send you a modified color list. Maybe it can be included into the
Scilab documentation. The color names were extracted from the v5.1.1
manual, then sorted with a "natural sorting algorithm" and used to
create a table with hex codes (upper and lower case), decimal codes
and a color sample.

I can imagine that direct HTML is not useful to you, but I think the
result would be useful for many users. So, if sth. must be changed to
XML (for DocBook, e.g.?), please tell how I can help you in this case.

Regards,

Maximilian Wendenburg

PS: while creating this list with Scilab I noticed 1) that the color()
routine is pretty slow and 2) that it requires the Graphic window to
show up. Both points are pretty annoying.
