`color` -e low high r g b

## DESCRIPTION

Creates an entry in the database that functions as part of a color lookup table for displayed regions. The ident number for the region is used to find the appropriate color from the lookup table. The low and high values are the limits of region ident numbers to have the indicated rgb color (0-255) applied. The current list of color table entries may be displayed with the `prcolor` command, and the entire color table may be edited using the -e option and/or using the `edcolor` command. If a color lookup table exists, its entries will override any color assigned using the `mater` command.

## EXAMPLES

The example shows the use of the `color` command to make an entry in the color lookup table for regions within a specified range of idents.
