Tango colour palette for LaTeX

In the course of today, I found myself wanting to access colours from the Tango palette in a document I was writing. Rather than just defining the specific colours I wanted by hand, I figured it would be quicker in the long run to generate a LaTeX package with all of the colours.

Interesting idea

This is interesting even if the package does not fit all LaTeX standards (usepackage instead of RequirePackage, no ProvidesPackage, etc.) One thing is missing: would you mind putting a licence on it (the WTFPL for example, or LPPL would be fine). -- Jean-Christophe Dubacq

That's made of pure awesome. I wish there was an easy way to integrate LaTeX into the desktop more. I think Cairo should be modified to accept LaTeX markup. :)

What did you use them for?

Tango is a beautiful palette. no doubt about that.

But I can't think of any use for colours in Latex. Or should I say so many?

I wanted little coloured tags using \colorbox.
