text color is easy.

Default hotkey text color is |cffffcc00(text)|r

Here's how to do your own:
|cff to start - first FF tag is for transparency.
After that, you have RGB avlues.
|cffRRGGBB|r <-add "|r" after text to complete.
for example - |cffff0000(text here be red)|r
|cff00ff00(Green)|r
|cff0000ff(Blue)|r
etc.

No, I believe that "Point Value" has no effect whatsoever on the game. I don't know the actual equation for experience, but it's based on the unit's level as well as things like whether it's a summoned unit, a building, a hero, etc.

Yes, the color values are in hex, just like web color definition. You can get any color from those 6 digits. If you don't know anything about how colors combine, it's going to be difficult for you to infer what combinations will make purple or even black, and although you can try it out and test it until you find something you like, your best bet is going to be something like ff00ff for purple and 000000 for black.

well your right about it having nothing to do with exp gained but it does on selling units i noticed this on a tower d i edited with a sell commad i didnt edit the point value so even if you did upgrade it still sold for 87 gold
