Would someone like to have a copy of all of the colors that I have
listed in my color chart page[s]?

I could work on creating a "standard.soc" file that contains all of
these colors.  I have just over 500 color names and hex codes, though
100 are levels of gray.

If someone would like a text file list of these colors, I can send them
a copy.

I may, when I have a bit of time, create an standard.soc file with all
of these colors listed as a replacement for the original one that LO has.

I could also add any color name/code that LO uses, like LO Green2, or LO
Blue2, etc., that are used in the documentation or on the web pages.

But, if there are people who want such a list, then I will place it
higher on my to-do list.
