For those not mathematically inclined and/or trying to set colors more
complex than pure red, a somewhat easier technique is the Digital Color
Meter, available to Classic users in the Apple Extras:Monitors Extras
folder. Select "RGB as Actual Value" in the pulldown menu, move the
mouse pointer over a sample of the color you like, and hit Command-C.
Paste the result into your script, reformat as a list, you're ready to
go.

Sincerely,
Joshua See
