[Plplot-devel] NOTICE: Change made to default colours

Hi,

     I changed the default colour scheme in plctrl.c and committed it to
CVS.  We now default to white as the background colour, with black as the
pen colour.  I also reorganized the remaining colours to produce the
best possible results for the PLplot examples.  We may want to fine-tune
the colour scheme a bit in order to optimize the results, but in general
the examples look pretty good.

     I have comprehensively tested the examples with the xwin, tk, and gcw
drivers, and also did some tests using the gd and ps drivers.  I didn't
find any problems, with the exception of what I noted in my previous
post.  Those problems are unrelated to the colour scheme changes.

     So, please test this with your favourite driver etc to see if there
are any remaining issues that need sorting out, or if there are changes
that need to be made.

     A question: Does this break any compatibility requirement?  If so,
how do we need to proceed?

Cheers,
Tom
