Description:
A list of hex color code globals.
The purpose of this library is to give you an idea of how to use string
constants and colors effectively in display text. It is not a complete list
and neither will it ever be. Instead, it is simply a list made to be added to.

Requirements
-vJass compiler (such as JASSHelper)
Documentation
-All globals are standalone. Feel free to copy an individual global.
-Credit for this library is not necessary. Feel free to use it in your map.
If you feel obligated to credit me, I won't object. I only ask that you do
not simply copy and paste the library as your own.
-The library isn't really needed. You can get by simply by copying and pasting
the globals block. You don't need to require the library
in order to use this either, but 'using' the library gives more logical errors
to the user if they do not have it in their map.
Purpose
The purpose of this library is to give you an idea of how to use string
constants and colors effectively in display text. It is not a complete list
and neither will it ever be. Instead, it is simply a list made to be added to.
API
This library provides a few hex color strings to use to color displayed text.
constant string CLR_END = "|r"
This string is used to end the color coded string.
(Example: CLR_RED + "This is Red" + CLR_END + ", and this is white.")
constant string CLR_LIGHTYELLOW ... CLR_DARKGRAY
These strings are used to color text that will be displayed
on the average WC3 background. They were chosen to be easier to read.
(Example: call BJDebugMsg(CLR_Yellow + "Don't kill " + END + CLR_RED + "THAT!" + CLR_END)
constant string PC_RED ... PC_BROWN
These strings are used to color something in a player's colored text.
(Example: call BJDebugMsg(PC_RED + GetPlayerName(Player(0)) + CLR_END + ": HI gUyz!")

endlibraryFAQ:
Q: Why use this library?
A: Simply put, the library gives some useful, standardized constants for concatenating strings.
Q: How do I get the color code for a specific player?
A: Since a player's color is not linked to a player's number in every map, player color and color codes are tracked in the stringPlayer library. You'll find the function you're looking for in that library.
Q: Why the unusual name?
A: Since the library is part of a collection of libraries (namely, the string library), I wanted the library names to stand out from others, and at the same time look unified.
