| I would like to have the ability to change colours for different settings within the plugin.
For hex colours I found I can use the regex match (#[0-9a-fA-F]{6}) for it, but I also want to check for MUSHClient colour words, is there any way I can have check if the colour I entered is recognized by MUSH?
Thanks | Top |

| Another approach is to use the global variable (table) that MUSHclient adds to the script space: colour_names
eg.
require "tprint"
tprint (colour_names)
Yields:
"midnightblue"=7346457
"indianred"=6053069
"purple"=8388736
"lightslategray"=10061943
"linen"=15134970
"dodgerblue"=16748574
"azure"=16777200
...
"hotpink"=11823615
"powderblue"=15130800
"lightsalmon"=8036607
"lightcyan"=16777184
"aquamarine"=13959039
"seashell"=15660543
Thus a simple test would be:
if colour_names [wanted_colour] then
-- colour is OK
else
-- colour not recognized
end -- if
