Jmol will either make a slight distinction in colors within the 'cpk' color scheme, or we will provide an alternate color scheme. > Don't know of alternative 'standards' but I've seen a CPK-like color > scheme used in WebLab Viewer 4.0 that gives at least slight > difference in shades for the non-CPK atoms, and is preferable to no > scheme at all. > It differs from Chime/RasMol in the CPK extensions > that you mentioned, but I don't know if that's a big drawback or if > anyone would really notice! Eric has indicated that he would prefer to have the colors the same as RasMol/Chime ... even with the duplicates ... by default.

If it isn't too much, trouble, I think that would be quite helpful. Are there any other places/mailing lists to ask about color schemes?
