Is there a list somewhere, or can I obtain a list somehow, of the color names I can use in function graphics? For example, I would like to create continental outlines on a map projection with a "charcoal" color, but this doesn't seem to be recognized. I realize I can pass a three-element color array, but I would like to know if there are any "defined" colors similar to charcoal.

There is also a pretty useful page in the IDL 8.1 on-line help that has information about color names, symbols, and line styles available with IDL Graphics. To get this page: 1) Start the IDL 8.1 help 2) On the main page click "Using IDL Graphics" 3) Scroll to the bottom of the page and click "Formatting IDL Graphics Symbols and Lines"
