Colornames
</H2>
Gnuplot knows a limited number of color names. You can use these to define
the color range spanned by a pm3d palette, or to assign a terminal-independent
color to a particular linetype or linestyle. To see the list of known color
names, use the command <B>show colornames (p. <A HREF="node190.html#show_colornames"><IMG ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="1" ALT="[*]" SRC="crossref.png"></A>)<A NAME="4306"></A></B>. Example:
<P>

<PRE>
