Hello I am using PyGMT, I love to use CPTs colors, so I am interested in a particular CPT palette. It is “world” ( [https://docs.generic-mapping-tools.org/6.2/cookbook/cpts.html#id2](https://docs.generic-mapping-tools.org/6.2/cookbook/cpts.html#id2)), I would like to know the CPT code, but I did not find in cpt-city and Scientific Colour-Maps web page. Anyone knows how to get the “world cpt code”?
