% Command \newcolormixin{\somecommand}
%
% Description:

% specification to \somecommand. Every time a color is set, the
% partial color specification in \somecommand will be applied to the
% current color.
%
% Examples:
%
% \newcolormixin\mymixin
% \def\mymixin{!50!white}
%
% \newcolormixin\anothermixin
% \def\anothermixin{!50!red}

\def\newcolormixin#1{%
  \expandafter\def\csname XC@mixin@\the\XC@nummixins\endcsname{#1}%
  \advance\XC@nummixins\@ne%
  \ifx#1\@undefined\def#1{}\fi}

\newcount\XC@nummixins
\newcount\XC@countmixins


% Command \applycolormixins{colorname}
%
% Description:
%
% Applies all color mixins that have been defined using \newcolormixin
% to the color named colorname.
%
% Examples:
%
% \applycolormixins{mycolor}

\def\applycolormixins#1{%
  \XC@countmixins=0\relax%
  \loop%
  \ifnum\XC@countmixins<\XC@nummixins%
    \colorlet{#1}{#1\csname XC@mixin@\the\XC@countmixins\endcsname}%
    \advance\XC@countmixins\@ne\relax%
  \repeat%
}


% Internal:

\def\XC@mcolor{%
  \ifnum\XC@nummixins>0%
    \@namelet{\string\color@XC@mixtmp}{\string\color@.}%
    \applycolormixins{XC@mixtmp}%
    \@namelet{current@color}{\string\color@XC@mixtmp}%
  \fi%
}



% Environment colormixin
%  
% #1 = full xcolor specification after the first ! ("white" may not be
%      omitted)
%
% Description:

% \begin{colormixin}{25!black}
%   This is dark red. 
%   \color{blue}
%   This is dark blue.
