I've read this documentation already and tried to set up the colors
according to this:

tclsh> package require Plplotter
tclsh> plframe .f
tclsh> .f cmd plscol0 0 255 255 255 ;# set color at index 0 to white
Couldn't parse color 255
tclsh> .f cmd plscol0 0 {255 255 255} ;# try the same with list
arguments
Couldn't parse color 255 255 255

But - Now I found out that one should set the colors by their Tcl names,
as in

tclsh> .f cmd plscol0 0 white
...

This doesn't come out of the documentation, however - and that confused
me.


Thanks for pointing me to try this out again -=20
