Student friendly name for color list #30

It would be handy to have a list of colors with the HTML title as "Colors in Pyret" or something else more meaningful to a student than "3.18?image-structs", which is what currently comes up in Google Classroom when I paste in the link.

I'm not sure I understand. You would like the list of colors in 3.18 to be on a separate page (rather than in the color module), so that it has a different page title?

A separate page would do yes, but since I wrote this I realized that these color names are just standard in HTML. I just hadn't come across them before so was puzzled (as if you and Shriram had sat around thinking up color names like "alice blue" one afternoon). So maybe just a line saying these are standard HTML color names (or whatever they are) and a link to some reference for that would be a little helpful.

I think the value to giving an external reference is that students can also use one of the innumerable tools (color pickers, etc.) and we wouldn't have to reconstruct any of that.
