you mean something like that:
0 Name: 1-4circ.dat
2 16 1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.9239 0.0000 0.3827
2 16 0.9239 0.0000 0.3827 0.7071 0.0000 0.7071
2 16 0.7071 0.0000 0.7071 0.3827 0.0000 0.9239
2 16 0.3827 0.0000 0.9239 0.0000 0.0000 1.0000
Only the L3 -check gets a massage that lines shouldn't use color 16.
So you can give them the color you want. Like red, blue, green and yellow.
