Hi jr,
sorry for not seeing and answering this before.

I took a look at the rgb.txt file from the BRLCAD's source files, and the
Peacock color there is defined as RGB 51, 161, 201.

If you convert that to a POV-Ray style format, that would be rgb <0.2,
0.631372549019608, 0.788235294117647> since you have to divide with 255 that is
the max value and equals 1 (with 0 being the minimum value), and not divide with
256 as you have done here, since that would give you 257 possible color
values...

Brgds,
Sven-Erik
