No need to subclass! If you define a larger array of colors, I'm sure it
can be included in the next version. Shouldn't take too much extra RAM. The
trick, of course, is to come up with a set of colors that (a) look nice,
and (b) are easily distinguished from each other. You may have better taste
than I did in defining the colors for EZGraph and EZBin in 1.3.1 ...
