Can anyone tell me if GRASS can deal with hexadecimal color codes
(something like 0100FFAA)? I have a ascii vector file that contains
hexadecimal color codes for the lines and polygons. I am writing a
small program that converts that ascii vector file (which was output
from another gis package) into the v.in.ascii format, and I wonder if
I can retain that information.

maybe an awk expert can give a shell script version of this C code to do
the translation:int r,g,b;
sscanf(color, "0x%02x%02x%02x", &r, &g, &b);
printf("%03d:%03d":%03d\n", r, g, b);
I'm no awk expert, but there does not seem to exist an easy way to do this in
awk. But you can find a possible solution here:
