Professor Stone, we can only create no more than a customized three colors,
but in vmd 1.9.4, the advanced colors scale like plasma viridis; there are
more than three colors, which is perfect for my coloration situation, but
it seems not customizable, for example I'm looking for the colors red,
cyan, green, purple.
