[IDV #DIM-196117]: color table in IDV

Greetings Joris,

I'm sorry to hear the bad news. The last suggestion I have is to move the 
.unidata/ folder (in your home directory) to something like .unidata_old/ and 
start the IDV - it could be the case that something inside of that folder has 
become corrupt. Please let me know if that fixes the issue.

Sean
