GPL Color Constants

PRogman
I just stumbled on an explanation of the (to me) poetic naming of colors in
the GPL constants.
All the names are the 140 named standard colors supported by CSS, ie HTML
web browsers.
If you search the net (e.g. adresses below) you can find color grouping,
rbg, hexcodes, hsl-values, and more. Should you ever need it...

https://www.w3schools.com/colors/default.asp

The following constants are listed in the manual:
aliceblue, aqua, azure, bisque, black, blanchedalmond, blue, blueviolet,
brown, burlywood, cadetblue, chartreuse, chocolate, coral, cornflowerblue,
cornsilk, crimson, cyan, darkblue, darkcyan, darkgoldenrod, darkgray,
darkgreen, darkgrey, darkkhaki, darkmagenta, darkolivegreen, darkorange,
darkorchid, darkred, darksalmon, darkseagreen, darkslateblue, darkslategray,
darkslategrey, darkturquoise, darkviolet, deeppink, deepskyblue, dimgray,
dimgrey, dodgerblue, firebrick, floralwhite, forestgreen, fuchsia,
gainsboro, ghostwhite, gold, goldenrod, gray, grey, green, greenyellow,
honeydew, hotpink, indianred, indigo, ivory, khaki, lavender, lavenderblush,
lawngreen, lemonchiffon, lightblue, lightcoral, lightcyan,
lightgoldenrodyellow, lightgray, lightgreen, lightgrey, lightpink,
lightsalmon, lightseagreen, lightskyblue, lightslategray, lightslategrey,
lightsteelblue, lightyellow, lime, limegreen, linen, magenta, maroon,
mediumaquamarine, mediumblue, mediumorchid, mediumpurple, mediumseagreen,
mediumslateblue, mediumspringgreen, mediumturquoise, mediumvioletred,
midnightblue, mintcream, mistyrose, moccasin, navajowhite, navy, oldlace,
olive, olivedrab, orange, orangered, orchid, palegoldenrod, palegreen,
paleturquoise, palevioletred, papayawhip, peachpuff, peru, pink, plum,
powderblue, purple, red, rosybrown, royalblue, saddlebrown, salmon,
sandybrown, seagreen, seashell, sienna, silver, skyblue, slateblue,
slategray, slategrey, snow, springgreen, steelblue, tan, teal, thistle,
tomato, turquoise, violet, wheat, white, whitesmoke, yellow, yellowgreen

For some obscure reason the following 4 are defined in CSS but not in SPSS:
AntiqueWhite, Aquamarine, Beige, RebeccaPurple
