Oh, Do you now? You Psychic?
FWIW The Reason I needed to make diffrent nets diffrent colors was so
that the schematic could be published for a group who may NOT be that
well versed in electronics. If the nets could be made diffrent colors
then there would be less chance of incorrect wireing done by someone
following the schematic. Colors also show the functions of the
various nets.

Yea, Eagle has a function like that, 'SHOW' (Little Eyeball Icon)
click it, click the net, highlights the whole net, incluiding
component pins. Eagle ALSO has "Electrical Rules Check' which will
generate a list of suspected errors according to the design rules in
use.
This was never intended to spark some sort of "This Editor is better
than that one" type of FLAME WAR.
I was only asking if anyone knew of a Script or ULP that would
perform the "colorizing" of selected nets.
Even using a 'junk' email address I prefer not to have to enter a lot
of information before I can download a evaluation copy of software.
Had to do that once for a piece of CNC related software, Had to give
a Valid phone # and I entered one. Salesman pestered the CRUD out of
me twice a week for about 3 Months. Told him the first couple of
times that I was'nt interrested and then I started checking caller ID
before answering the phone, what a PITA! (Pain In The A∗∗).
