CTAN update: xcolor 2.04
Date: September 24, 2005 7:53:37 PM CEST
On Sat, 24 Sep 2005 Uwe Kern submitted an update to the
xcolor
package.
xcolor provides easy driver-independent access to several kinds of color
tints, shades, tones, and mixes of arbitrary colors. It allows a user to
select a document-wide target color model and offers complete tools for
conversion between eight color models. Additionally, there is a command
for alternating row colors plus repeated non-aligned material (like
horizontal lines) in tables. Colors can be mixed like
\color{red!30!green!40!blue}.

Announcement text:
2005/09/23 v2.04 * New features: - preparation for usage of additional - driver-provided - color models; - `pstricks' users may now specify explicit color parameters within \psset and related commands, e.g. \psset{linecolor=[rgb]{1,0,0}}; an illustrative example is given in xcolor2.tex. * Changes: - color model names sanitized (i.e., turned to catcode 12) throughout the package; - \@namelet command deprecated because of name clash with `memoir' - please use \XC at let@cc instead (more \XC at let@.. commands are available as well); - simplified color conversion code by using the new \XC at ifxcase command; - some minor changes to internal macros.
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

xcolor – Driver-independent color extensions for LaTeX and pdfLaTeX
The package starts from the basic facilities of the color package, and provides easy driver-independent access to several kinds of color tints, shades, tones, and mixes of arbitrary colors. It allows a user to select a document-wide target color model and offers complete tools for conversion between eight color models. Additionally, there is a command for alternating row colors plus repeated non-aligned material (like horizontal lines) in tables. Colors can be mixed like \color{red!30!green!40!blue}.
