Creating a custom colortable

[martijn at scanner.frw.uva.nl]

Hi there,

	if you've been plodding around a bit trying to figure out how to 
get Grass to display raster files in subtle coloring (very important to 
draw oohs and aahs and money), as I have, seek no more: I've put a suite 
of scripts on the moon (in grass/incoming), called xcolors, that will 
help you choose colors from a list of 280 and creates a file that you can 
use as `rules' input for r.colors (read that man page!). 
	WARNING 1: you need to have xgen installed and to have grass running
	WARNING 2: I'm afraid the scripts are a bit ugly and you will 
need to do some editing before a useful colortable emerges... 
unfortunately I have no more time to do this myself.

Have fun,
