Yes, it's read in at the beginning but ovewritten by the default palette when a "grasp.state" file is read in after startup...

Dear Iain, 

I can't check as I have no working grasp here anymore, but I recall 
defcol.dat was read in as long as it was in the directory where you 
started the grasp session. And judging from the fact that  have half a 
dozen files in my directories, that's what I have done.

I have a GRASP session saved which I startup by reading in "grasp.state". I
have changed some colours in "defcol.dat" and I would like these changes to
take effect in my saved session, but everytime I read in "grasp.state" it
changes the colour palette back to the default set again.

Does anyone know how I can use my own defcol.dat palette in such a session ?
I'm learning PyMOL in tandem while I figure this out..

Thanks in advance.

best,
Iain
