FullPalette 40.18 (1.10.97) by Massimo Tantignone

   FullPalette is a patch that, together with a preferences editor, allows
you to define and save ALL the 256 Workbench colors and not just eight of
them as the standard Palette editor does.

   You can decide exactly which colors are to be "locked", and thus never
modified by programs running on the Workbench screen, and which colors
instead are to be left "free" for IPrefs and other applications.

   Among other advantages, this makes the managing of icons much easier;
using FullPalette you can, for example, have icons with any number of
colors without risking to see some of them change just because you view
a picture with MultiView on the Workbench screen.
   You could also set colors 4-7 to always be the same as colors 252-255.

   FullPalette also has a button strip to easily perform editing actions
such as "Copy", "Swap" and "Spread".

   For the purpose of editing the Workbench palette, FullPalette can
wholly replace the standard "Palette" preferences editor, whose settings
file (palette.prefs) it continues to maintain for compatibility, although
FullPalette also uses a custom file.

   The patch runs alongside IPrefs with no conflicts.

   **************************************************************
   Note: This patch is even more useful when used in conjunction
         with the "VisualPrefs" patch for the Amiga GUI, which is
         also available on Aminet as util/wb/VisualPrefs.lha.
   **************************************************************

   Changes:

   · Added a workaround for a bug in the V39 gadtools.library
     concerning the displaying of the contents of the color number
     indicators. Hope it works!

   · The "Options->WBPattern remapping" menu is now correctly
     updated when you select "Last saved" from the "Edit" menu.

   · Added "Ignore" to the pattern remapping options.

   · A new environment variable now allows to have automatic
     copying of the last four palette colors to colors 4-7.
