Color names vs hex codes

[Jan Schenkel]

Hi Peter,

Here's the one-liner if you use Quartam Color Library for LiveCode:
##
put qrtColor_RGBToHex(qrtColor_NameToRGB("AliceBlue")) into tHexColor
##

I have a need to convert a color name form LC's colornames property to its
equivalent hex value, or rgb value.  Can that be done in LC?
