Chris, Thanks for the suggestion. I actually already found it, and it's been pretty helpful. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to import some ase's that I have come across, like the ase ones here<http://www.sherwin-williams.com/architects-specifiers-designers/color/color-tools/downloadable-color-palettes/>. However, I successfully been using it for some knowledge about the plugin process. When I first found that plugin, I was wondering why it created a new menu item in the palette menu. I found that it isn't possible to have plugins just provide a palette loader procedure and that the only way to integrate such a plugin was by creating ta new menu item that separately adds a palette. That discovery seemed unfortunate to me, so now my goal is to make the process smoother by allowing one to write a plugin that will detect and load the file when it's selected through the normal import palette from file option. That "normal" method will have to change to allow plugins to be used in addition to the other palette loaders of course. It might even make sense to convert those palette loaders to plugins. Just so you all know, this actually started with my wife wanting to import *.ase palettes in .
