Summary description: Driver-independent color extensions for LaTeX and pdfLaTeX
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
2005/12/21 v2.09 * New features: - \definecolor and \color now accept space-separated color specifications, e.g., \color[rgb]{1 .5 0}; - experimental `xcdraw' option extended to `pdftex' and `dvipdfm' drivers. * Changes: - test file xcolor2.tex made compatible with recent changes in `pstricks'; - test file xcolor3.tex extended; - driver test file xcolor4.tex extended to demonstrate the different frame drawing approaches; - more efficient implementation of driver-specific code.
Thanks for the update. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

xcolor – Driver-independent color extensions for LaTeX and pdfLaTeX
The package starts from the basic facilities of the color package, and provides easy driver-independent access to several kinds of color tints, shades, tones, and mixes of arbitrary colors. It allows a user to select a document-wide target color model and offers complete tools for conversion between eight color models. Additionally, there is a command for alternating row colors plus repeated non-aligned material (like horizontal lines) in tables. Colors can be mixed like \color{red!30!green!40!blue}.
