256 Terminal Color Question ...

[Ben Duncan]

Ok, am back on my PYapp project, and have been trying to figure something out.

init_color defines the palette RGB as a value between 0 and 1000.

I am looking at 256 Web Safe Colors chart and find out the RGB values.
The RGB values are listed in HEX as well as Decimal.

(see:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_colors )

My question is how do I convert those RGB values to the the
correct NUMERIC value value required by init_color to come out
the the color chart as listed?

Thanks as always ...
