[Coco] Multivue enhancements?

[Bill Pierce]

Once you set the palettes from control, you have to click "files" (while still in control) and "save env" or they will not be saved for the next session.

One issue I had with MultiVue is that everybody picked different colours, and 
which palette registers, differently, which made a lot of programs a mess (once 
one program set palettes, others would look weird). My proposal was to fix the 
first 4 slots (used by MultiVue) in order of darkest to lightest (I think... 
Going by faint memory here), so that programmers could at least have a rough 
idea of how the palettes behaved, but they could still be individualized. We had 
3 sets of colours originally as samples; greyscale, a grey/light blue combo, and 
a red/yellow style one. That Gshell was one of the last things I did before I 
got too busy (in work and private life) to work on Nitros9 anymore.
Also the CONTROL program (callable from the Tandy menu) lets you set those 
palettes, etc. and that version of Gshell should automatically set them on boot 
(unlike the original).
