Here is an alphabetical list of the colornames and their abbreviations, that are specifically used in Grasshopper Playground. Either the colorname or its abbreviation can be used. Thank you @Grasshopper_Frankie for providing much of the list. Others I was able to locate and verify them all in the playground. Please let me know if any modifications to this list are needed.
