[Rik]

Update of bug #59534 (project octave):

Follow-up Comment #3:

It turns out this wasn't that hard to add.  I checked in a changeset which
improves the performance of __pltopt__ as well as adding support for long form
names.  See http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/c661350ee8df.  Note,
that only full long form names such as "black" or "yellow" are detected. 
Truncated color specifications such as "yell" will result in an error.  I
don't consider that a big issue, although it is a difference from Matlab which
can take "blasq" and parse it into "black" and "square".  Marking as Ready for
Test.
