Yes, OK.  But why doesn't COLOR_IO.LOWER_CASE work, seeing that we are using

package COLOR_IO is new TEXT_IO.ENUMERATION_IO(ENUM => COLORS);

shouldn't it follow that LOWER_CASE is distinct for each separate instantiation
of TEXT_IO.<enum_type> ?  Yet, if I put COLOR_IO.LOWER_CASE it doesn't work,
giving the same error message as before.
