This code implements a Macintosh MDEF for selecting a color. The user is
presented with a matrix of color chips to select from.
Each menu item represents a color to be displayed. It should be a 12 byte
string of the form:
RRRRGGGGBBBB
where RRRR, GGGG, and BBBB are hex numbers (as ASCII text).
So, the color black would be:
"\pFFFFFFFFFFFF"
the color green would be:
"\p0000FFFF0000"
The current color is, by definition, the menu item that has a mark. So, you
should only set a mark (any value) for one item at time.
Reference the sample app for an example usage.
