Yeah that was hard to explain, sorry. :)  So think of classic Tux Paint
from many years ago, where the "Colors" section only contained a palette
of pre-defined colors.  It is these colors that I'm talking about.

That is as opposed to a user-chosen color, created by either using the
pipette tool to pull the color from the canvas, or the color mixer
(mix combinations of red/yellow/blue/black/grey/white), or even the
rainbow palette itself. [*]

[*] The rainbow palette came first, IIRC, and was initially just
a square containing approx. 65,000 colors to choose from.  Recently
I added the separate luminance/value bar, to allow for approx.
16,000,000 colors to choose from, making it a kind of HSV picker.


PS - I just added a new ".desktop" launcher for Freedesktop.org
(Linux, etc.) which runs Tux Paint in fullscreen mode (like we have
had for Windows for a while), which adds one new string to the POT
and PO files: "Tux Paint (Fullscreen)".  Sorry for the late addition!

-bill!
