The first version of DW's vt100 emulator contained within
it a color editor like the one in preferences.  This was by
far the simplest way to do it.  Too bad it was removed from
later versions.  I keep telling myself that I will put
it back into V2.1, but I never seem to have the time (reading
40+ net.micro.amiga articles each day seem to take all the free
time I have... :-)
	Dave, why did the color editor not make it into more recent
versions?
