colorsys DEPRECATE (very incomplete and possible inacurate, use PIL)

Hm... This incorporates quite a bit of arcane knowledge that was hard to come by when we wrote it. I'm not sure where it is incomplete or inaccurate.

Um, missing color systems like CMYK (which of course are nearly impossible to do), but also is part of the concept of imaging a'la PIL it seems, so awefully incomplete without the ability to do transformations in the color system (histograms, etc).

Its main use would be in dialogs (allow users to specify colors in hls or whatever), and possibly to build conversion arrays, but I'm not sure whether it is used by anyone anymore. Nope, I myself don't seem to use it any longer... -- Jack Jansen | ++++ stop the execution of Mumia Abu-Jamal ++++ Jack.Jansen@cwi.nl | ++++ if you agree copy these lines to your sig ++++ http://www.cwi.nl/~jack | see http://www.xs4all.nl/~tank/spg-l/sigaction.htm
