1"""Color Database.
2
3This file contains one class, called ColorDB, and several utility functions.
4The class must be instantiated by the get_colordb() function in this file,
5passing it a filename to read a database out of.
6
7The get_colordb() function will try to examine the file to figure out what the
8format of the file is.  If it can't figure out the file format, or it has
9trouble reading the file, None is returned.  You can pass get_colordb() an
10optional filetype argument.
11
12Supporte file types are:
13
14    X_RGB_TXT -- X Consortium rgb.txt format files.  Three columns of numbers
15                 from 0 .. 255 separated by whitespace.  Arbitrary trailing
16                 columns used as the color name.
17
18The utility functions are useful for converting between the various expected
19color formats, and for calculating other color values.
