[RkWard-devel] "code" button and "color" plugin

Hi,

There are two issues I wanted to bring to light:

1. The "Code" button on every plugin might use a little modification.
Try toggling the "Code" button and see the issue: Change the default
number of code pixels (Settings > Configure RKWard) to some thing big,
say 400. Now when the "Code" button is toggled (for any plugin) so
that the code is not displayed, the whole plugin window elongates,
making the plugin GUI look awkward. Let us say the default code
display height is 'c' pixels, and for the current plugin, the GUI
height is 'p' pixels. Then, it would be nice if the "Code" button
toggles the total widget height between,
    p (plugin)+0 (code) <--- and ---> p (plugin) + c (code)
instead of
    p+c (plugin)  <--- and ---> p (plugin) + c (code).

2. An embedable 'color' plugin will be very useful. Stefan's dropbox
in plot_options was a quick work around. Instead of copy pasting the
whole bunch in many other plugins (like Export, CLT plugins), at least
a temporary embedable plugin might be handy. The neater approaches as
mentioned (by Thomas?) in the TODO or earlier mails might take some
time.
