X11 has a pretty good list.  Its usually in rgb.txt which is usually
in the standard X library, which is usually:
	/usr/lib/X11
so usually, the file will be
	/usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt
I usually so much here 'cause everything I read from MIT reads that
this is the 'standard' directory.  I heve met many machines who
choose differently.  Anyway, as if you don't know:
	find / -name rgb.txt -print
should usually find it (could be many moons if you use nfs'ed drives.
