Documenting the matplotlib colormaps

	# https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/issues/881
	# Several of the ColorBrewer maps are "qualitative", meaning
	# they are just a group of colors that can be used together
	# for categories of data. So I remapped Accent to segments
	# instead of continuous:

	# Actually, these should be used with ListedColormap, and
	# the number of colors should depend on the number of
	# categories in the data, with colors removed from the
	# list in a certain order?
