Fix inconsistent spelling of color #61

Closed kittsville closed 6 years ago

kittsville commented 6 years ago

Color is currently spelt using a mixture of the US and UK spellings in the book. By standardising it to the US spelling (same as CSS/Java/etc.) broken code and confusion can be reduced.

Hi Kit. Thanks for working on this PR and apologies for taking so long to repond.

I'm afraid we're going to stick to our guns on this one: write in British English and program in US English. I realise it's not a perfect system, but Color is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to spelling inconsistencies.

Thanks for your effort, though. I'm going to put together a contributors page for the book and I'll make sure you're on it.
