Description

Converts an RGB colour code (eg. 255) to its HTML name (eg. "red").

The list of colour names recognised can be found by using MUSHclient's "colour picker" (Ctrl+Alt+P), or by using the function:

world.Debug "colours"

VBscript example

world.note world.RGBColourToName (255)


Jscript example

world.note (world.RGBColourToName (255));


PerlScript example

$world->note ($world->RGBColourToName (255));


Python example

world.note (world.RGBColourToName (255))


Lua example

Note (RGBColourToName (255))


Return value

The colour name (eg. "red", "blue"), or an RGB code (eg. "#FFE4E1).
