The color specs in the gd driver pre-date my involvement.
I had forgotten about them, although coincidentally I looked them up
yesterday because Dan Sebald was asking how to set the background
color.

Anyhow, I chose the #rrggbb syntax because that is how the colors
are given to  'set palette defined', and the discussion of color
names and hexadecimal representations applies perfectly to this new
case also.  So if I were to change anything, I think it would be gd.trm.

thanks for the feedback.
