A = alpha (transparency)
DR, DG, DB, DA = dithered RGB,A.
If RGB = D(RGB), then the color is solid. If DA=0, the color is transparent.
Otherwise, the color is dithered and/or translucent.

Actually, that kind of information should be set up in a full-fledged (but small)
database.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm suggesting. And the database should be text-based,
space-delimited, available offline to all softwares that may need the info - and
udpated regulary. In other words: in the new, improved ldconfig.ldr! :)

Tore,
Is this the kind of output you are looking for?
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/ClarkCorner/Vintage/ColorTree/ColorCompare/ldconfig.csv
(that link will probably wrap)
That's just some of the info from my Color Tree pages:
http://isodomos.com/VPH/Color
Let me know what you need, or how you need it presented. I'd be glad to help in
any way I can.
HTH,
Clark
