"Hex Key" by damefox

Hi all! Another one-off meta going live on my Crosshare page at 6pm tonight, but if you happen to be reading the forum this afternoon you can have a headstart: https://crosshare.org/crosswords/1IG9O6 ... x-key-meta.

The meta answer is a color. Don't be alarmed by the title "Hex Key" - I don't think it's a spoiler to say there is absolutely no need to number the rows/columns of the puzzle in base 16 (see here if you don't know what I'm referring to).

Late arrival here as well. "Some" Google required :lol:, but most enjoyable.
