Hi!

The last version of Mondrian contains the class XKCDColor produced by Johan Fabry.

You can try (also accessible from the example menu in a MOEasel/examples/colors:

| cols | cols := (XKCDColor colormap keys collect: [:cnam | XKCDColor named: cnam]) sortedAs: #hue.

view shape rectangle withoutBorder. view nodes: cols forEach: [:col | view shape rectangle fillColor: col; width: 65; height: 25. view node: col. view shape label text: col name. view node: col. view verticalLineLayout]. view gridLayout gapSize: 0

Cheers, Alexandre

Hi Doru, Alex,

I dont know how this is advancing for Pharo, apparently it is not considered a priority (which I understand of course). So in the mean time you could consider adding it to Mondrian/Moose, as Doru said. The .st file is in attachment, a Mondrian script to produce a reasonably sorted overview of the colors is below. Maybe you will want to do some cleaning/censoring of color names. I personally think that there is no harm here but I have been known to be liberal sometimes :-)

|cols| cols := SortedCollection new sortBlock: [:c1 :c2 | (c1 hue) > (c2 hue) ]. cols addAll: (XKCDColor colormap keys collect: [:cnam | XKCDColor named: cnam]). view shape rectangle withoutBorder. view nodes: cols forEach: [:col | view shape rectangle fillColor: col; width: 65; height: 25. view node: col. view shape: (MORectangleShape new text: col name; withoutBorder). view node: col. view verticalLineLayout]. view gridLayout gapSize: 0

Hi Johan,

I would definitely be interested in getting this as an external library around Mondrian and Moose.

Cheers, Doru
