    Any RGB colour library ?

    I'm not sure what exactly I'm looking for !
    I'm learning OpenGL, and the RGB colours seem confusing to me to use by hand for everything I draw.
    Are there any external library available that makes the task of managing colours somewhat easier ?

    A fun side-project might be to parse this -> List of colors - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    to give you a nice function you can call, passing a colour name, and returning an RGB.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
