I think you can now use any hex color you want - I avoided those in the 90s when a lot of screens were color-mapped but that's a rarity nowadays.

Good to see there's a plan in gestation. I may well check out pdnext, but for now, I managed to change the white background to gray30. That has helped.
Some grep output:

tcl/pdtk_canvas.tcl:134: -background gray30I used this tk rgb color map to lookup the names: https://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl/TkCmd/colors.htm https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl/TkCmd/colors.htm__;!!Mih3wA!Cz0jjoMNDzX3pxOS9ONvTv2Z5Tu6hv9mmd2KHRBk8PXiRjat91-SyfRkYYqg42qiSx3TM_caMl-hEA$
I did see a lot of hex colors in the c code when I grepped for "color". That gave me pause, and undermined the idea that I might be able to make a brute force global change to the color palette used by tk on my system: https://www.sci.utah.edu/~chris/SCIRun/tcl/tk/tkColor.c https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.sci.utah.edu/*chris/SCIRun/tcl/tk/tkColor.c__;fg!!Mih3wA!Cz0jjoMNDzX3pxOS9ONvTv2Z5Tu6hv9mmd2KHRBk8PXiRjat91-SyfRkYYqg42qiSx3TM_d1u7o6Lw$
Thanks for the info and advice!
