Color Values
The Colors which can be interpreted by the applet are :
black white red
green grey cyan
magenta pink orange
blue green
The applet ignores the case of the parameter to resolve to those colors.
In addition colors can be passed as Hexadecimal Strings and will be parsed to an appropriate color. ie This color is 0c2b8e.
The routine defaults to Color.green if the Hex value is bogus or if no Colour parameter is passed to it...
