+		High Performance Colour Space Manipulation // The encoding of
+		colour can be handled in many different ways, using different
+		colour spaces. As different colour spaces have different uses,
+		efficient conversion between these representations are
+		important. The 'farver' package provides a set of functions
+		that gives access to very fast colour space conversion and
+		comparisons implemented in C++, and offers speed improvements
+		over the 'convertColor' function in the 'grDevices' package.
