I see.

Actually, it should be something like
        "in the range 0 to \fBCOLORS\-1\fR, inclusive"
because "between" (idiomatically) does not include the endpoints.

As you see, the limits are repeated several times, and the example I gave
is wordy.  Perhaps factoring that out, as a paragraph defining a valid
color index would be the way to go.
