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.

Ok--I guess that I'll see about upping the number of colors in the plots.

On another point Dave. I notice that Lua version 5 is released. Any
plans
to update?

Keith.

I hadn't realized that a release version of Lua 5.0 had been come out--thanks for pointing this out. I'll have to check it out to see whether transitioning to Lua 5.0 should be a priority or a longer-term change.

If it is of any use I have a mathcad document which I put together which

the following link might be of interest also

I'd be interested in taking a look at the worksheet. Also, thanks for the link.

Dave.
