I suggested the hash approach only because (1) it is easier to

"color.foo = fred" can be caught more easily.

I do not quite understand the "after all, we're pattern
matching" part, though. Are you talking about "split(/\s+/, $str)" your for-loop iterates over?


I think we're talking about the same thing. I was referring to the split regular expression, and the question is, "for the current element of split(/\s+/, $str), does it match a color?"

Anyway, I preferred the regex version for readability, though I should have used the /x modifier--it would still take two lines, but it would not need to attempt two matches. As for misconfigured color configurations, should we catch that? I wrote this with the intent that it should ignore invalid color names, but it would probably be more useful to print a warning.
