I have to leave fro Denmark now, but run my command, ?color2rgb(GetColor()), and click the colors you want. For yellow, you will see 255,255,0. For brown you will see 128,64,0. It's that easy.

>>I don't know what you really mean. There are only 8 distinct colors if you don't want shades. With no shades, you mean each color can only be 0 or 255, so you have the following eight options:
>>
>>1. RGB(0,0,0)
>>2. RGB(0,0,255)
>>3. RGB(0,255,0)
>>4. RGB(0,255,255)
>>5. RGB(255,0,0)
>>6. RGB(255,0,255)
>>7. RGB(255,255,0)
>>8. RGB(255,255,255)
>>
>>If any color also can be 127, you have even more colors. You can easily create a small program to present all the different color combinations on the screen. Hey, wait, isn't that exactly what getcolor() does? :-)

>>Which are "most used" I really don't know, since I don't know of anyone ever have had any survey on this. Frankly, I think the solution I gave you is the best.
