The "util" module contains a number of functions that color the atoms
according to type, with different colors for the C atoms. For instance,

  util.cbay three

in a .pml script will color object "three" by atom type, with the carbon
atoms in yellow ("color by atom yellow").

Other functions from ../modules/pymol/util.py are cbag, cbac, cbas,
cbap, cbak, cbaw and cbab (grey (carbon), cyan, salmon, purple, pink, 
white (hydrogen) and slate).
