        <para>
            <literal>name2rgb</literal> returns the RGB values of a color given by its literal name.
            The result is
            a vector or a matrix with 3 columns <literal>[r,g,b]</literal> where <literal>r</literal>,
            <literal>g</literal> and <literal>b</literal> are integers between 0 and 255
            corresponding to colors components red, green and blue. As usual 0 means no intensity and
            255 means all the intensity of the color.
        </para>
        <para>
            If no color is found <literal>[]</literal> is returned.
