Description
Allows on-the-fly switching of whole sets of color name definitions.
NB \definepalet relies on a non-standard argument parser that does not tolerate trailing commas [1]. Therefore the following syntax is illegal:
\definepalet [foo] [ first=red, second=green, %% <= will fail ]
Use common ConTeXt coding style instead:
\definepalet [foo] [first=green, second=red]
Alternatively, replace the comma with a comment character:
\definepalet [foo] [ first=green, second=red% ]
Example
\setupcolors [x11] \definepalet [colorful] [primary=green] \definepalet [bleak] [primary=darkgray] \starttext \setuppalet [colorful] \color[primary]{Ain’t I a colorful entity?} \setuppalet [bleak] \color[primary]{Ain’t I a colorful entity?} \stoptext
