`Dave,`
`I would agree that too many colours can look messy but a few more could be an improvement, the range at the moment is a bit too course. MEGA and Quickfield (I think) use 32 colours and the plots look great but it is difficult to differentiate between some of the mid range steps, so 16 or perhaps 24 colours might be worth trying.`
`On another point Dave. I notice that Lua version 5 is released. Any plans to update?`
