I seem to have a bunch of different objects that contain scripts which translate color text strings ("red", etc) into vectors. I suspect that there are a fair number of other objects in-world that also contain these types of scripts. It might be nice to be able to lose all this processing and static lists from resident scripts and have a simple lookup table on the sim side. Maybe something like... vector color = <1.0, 1.0, 1.0>; //default
if (llValidColorName (textString))
color = llColorName2Vector (textString); ...or maybe have it take a 'default color' argument and just do one call... vector color = llColorName2Vector (textString, MY_DEFAULT_COLOR); The W3C defines a list of 16 standard color names. It would be nice to have more but those could be used as a start.. |

{
integer i = llList2List(color_map,[name]);
if(i==-1) return none;
