Yes, it looks like it would be a bit complex. I looked at r.colors,
and it would take a bit or rewriting to handle the way I wrote the
find_etc function, or I may need to consider a new variation on the
function to handle the way r.colors works.
Symlinks of the color files in the application package would be
marginally safer than the files themselves - you wouldn't lose the
files, but you may still have to recreate the symlinks.
Did you try using the full path to the color files?

Thanks for the info. It would be nice if one could have external
directories where color tables and such could be stored, but it
also sounds like it would be a lot of work for a small return. I
think I'll keep my color tables in the etc/ folder and create
symbolic links to them in the proper folder. That should be easy
enough to maintain.
Cheers,
Mike

I recently added a function to handle an external etc/ folder, but
it currently isn't used in the core modules, but was intended more
for addon modules that need to use an external etc/.
