h2c
Informations
h2c ("html to color") is a program that converts HTML color names to their respective #rrggbb hex values and vice versa. Program can only be used from shell and offers some other useful features, not just the name conversion.
Current version
Current version is 1.0, released on
11/3/1998.
News since previous beta version:
- Almost rewritten the program :-)
- Reduced executable size by over 8k and improved search speed by changing the way color data is stored.
- Now it is possible to use $ for specifying that the inserted HTML color is an hex value. This has been added to avoid confusion (for shells) between # and an wildcard.
- Changed 'FILTER' to 'NOALIAS' and improved its functionality.
- Various other internal changes.
