+                    (n, 1) = color index or NaN
+                    (n, 2) = red component (0...255)
+                    (n, 3) = green component (0...255)
+                    (n, 4) = blue component (0...255)

+===== Notes =====
+For performance reasons, BrainVoyager supports both index based coloring (e.g. two-color curvature information, or for painting/cutting during flattening) *and* RGB coloring. To store both kinds of information in a separable way, 3 bytes per vertex would not have been sufficient.
+Internally, any RGB colored vertex is stored with hexadecimal ''0x3f'' prefix (which resembles single-precision floating point numbers in the range between 0.5 and 2). Index based colors are stored with a prefix of ''0x00''. Currently, alpha information is not supported (per vertex).
