I hope for this library to become the standard colour library for Haskell. Most software does not properly blend colours because they fail to gamma-correct the colours before blending. Hopefully by using this library, Haskell programs dealing with colour blending will avoid this problem.
I am making an early release of my colour library to get some feedback. I am especially interested in getting feedback on the interfaces: should functions be renamed, should functions be moved, etc. Should I put black and white colours into Data.Colour? Which is better form making a colour: (sRGB r g b) or (sRGB (r,g,b))?
Bug reports and any patches are also welcome. Be warned, I haven't extensively tested this library yet.
I think it would be nice to have conversion functions for wxHaskell and the like, to convert between the different color representations. -- Regards, Henk-Jan van Tuyl -- http://functor.bamikanarie.com http://Van.Tuyl.eu/ --

I agree; however, it will be upto the wxHaskell (and gtk2hs, etc) people to import this library and implement this. -- Russell O'Connor http://r6.ca/ ``All talk about `theft,''' the general counsel of the American Graphophone Company wrote, ``is the merest claptrap, for there exists no property in ideas musical, literary or artistic, except as defined by statute.''
