2005/09/30 v2.05 * New features: - `testcolors' environment helps to test colors in different models, showing both the visual result and the model-specific parameters; - \extractcolorspecs puts model/color specification into two separate commands, as opposed to \extractcolorspec; - color names `pink' and `olive' added to the set of predefined colors. * Bugfixes: - \definecolor{foo}{named}{bar} did not work in v2.04.
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}.
