- Colors can be specified in many different formats, such as #RRGGBB,
RRGGBB, #RGB, 'rgb(…, …, …)', 'hsl(…,
…, …)', 'gray(…)' or simply by the name of the color.

picker to choose a color. If no color argument is specified, colors will
be read from standard input. Examples (all of these specify the same
color):
