In fact the plugin is trying to read the bccPAL1 file to get the
histogram object. This was done before the changes to the raster API
committed not so long ago. I suppose this file is now obsolete as I can
read the xml (histogram) file generated when QGIS reads a raster file.
Still thinking how best to go about it...

Sorry, it is too late for me to provide an updated version of the
plugin, will see what I can do tomorrow.
I think Tim was working on a C++ equivalent but I do not know how far he
as gone on this path, Tim?

In fact the plugin does not remember what colour tables it has already
created and does not read the txt files either. This could be something
to add, thanks.
The dropdown listbox is filled every time you click 'Create' and emptied
when the plugin exits.

Cheers,
Benoit
