   If LeoCAD supported ldconfig.ldr then it would be a matter of just  
replacing your config file to get the new names, I'm ok with that. I  
could even include both config files in the setup package and let the  
users pick one in the preferences dialog.

   To be honest, my color scheme sucks and needs new colors. There's  
no point in adding a new scheme that no one else is going to use so I  
should probably just take whatever is the LDraw standard and use it.

   My only issue is, like I said in my other email, I don't want to  
display rubber black and black to the users. It would be nice if the  
color palette changed based on the current piece but I don't think  
there's a table anywhere of possible materials for each piece so that  
won't happen.
