/*

This script is meant to be used with a Google Sheets spreadsheet. When you edit a cell containing a
valid CSS hexadecimal colour code (like #000 or #000000), the background colour will be changed to
that colour and the font colour will be changed to the inverse colour for readability.

To use this script in a Google Sheets spreadsheet:
1. go to Tools » Script Editor » Spreadsheet;
2. erase everything in the text editor;
3. change the title to "Set colour preview on edit";
4. paste this code in;
5. click File » Save.
