Yawn,

 I made a colors include file (Kolors.inc) about a year ago that was
collected from various sources and has somewhere around 680 different
colors by name. I also maintained all of the original colors from
colors.inc and renamed any new colors where name collisions might have
occured. This assures that any scene you might have previously made
using the original colors.inc will work as expected and is totaly
backward compatible. It also contains an example scene file
(contributed by Peter Popov) which indexs the colors for easy selection.
If anyone is interested I will repost it in the appropriate group.
