This definition is too vague to be useful. I think there are a couple of
ways to “describe” something in the CMYK color space, but this
definition does not provide an example, nor does it define how to use x2
exactly for a given color.

Probably the easiest way would be to make a sumti for each element (C, M,
Y and K).

I was thinking of four numbers separated by "ce'o". The maximum could be 255, 100, or 1, which maybe should go in x3. I've been designing my business card in Scribus. Some colors are RGB and some are CMYK; that's what prompted me to enter this.

Example: «li pi mu ce'o li pi ro ce'o li pi no» for "127:255:0".

In Scribus, orange (which I added) is "#00a0ff00" in the file and "C:0% M:63% Y:100% K:0%" in the tooltip. In Postscript, it would be "0 0.627451 1 0".
