Example 3:

Just add something like this to the ldliterc.dat file or at the
beginning of your model file:

0 COLOR 0 black 15 34 34 34 255 34 34 34 255
0 COLOR 4 red 0 196 0 38 255 196 0 38 255
0 COLOR 1 blue 0 0 51 178 255 0 51 178 255
0 COLOR 2 green 0 0 127 51 255 0 127 51 255
0 COLOR 7 light-gray 0 170 170 170 255 170 170 170 255

This is great info Don! Is there a specific directory ldliterc.dat needs to
go into? I've tried it in the ldraw and ldlite directories and ldlite
doesn't seem to pay any attention to it, although putting the color red line
directly into the file does indeed change the line color to black.

Right now it only looks in the current directory.  Depending on how you
launch ldlite this may be the directory with the main model file.  Since
this isn't as useful as it could be, I'm sure it'll be changed in a
future release.  There was some discussion a while back on whether or
not it should search using the normal directory search order for DAT/ldr
files, but I don't remember what came out of that discussion.

I also floated the idea of using a 0 INCLUDE meta-command for this
purpose, but I don't think that idea went anywhere.
