Alright, version 2.0 is done! (was going to say it was 1.1, but the save files are totally incompatible, so...)
Features:
1. Scoring column enabled by checkbox
2. Color saving
3. Fixed the ugly save dialog (that was a bit of an oversight... )
4. Double clicks now increment or decrement selections or score
5. Load simple lists of names as just that - a list of names with no name for the list (defaulting to N/A for list name)
(left click to increment, right click to decrement, double-click on name or # of selections for selections, on the score to inc/dec selections)
With the new save files comes a few quirks in writing them, and because of those quirks for adding special data (color, name of the list) comes the ability to load lists of names. Just open the example.vrs file in the zip for an example - it's self-explanatory through comments.
One thing that was unintentional but could be a useful quirk with java graphics - if you write something like
The html doesn't need to be well-formed. i.e.
Apologies for the code boxes - couldn't make it ignore the html tags in the post, and using special variables (<) doesn't seem to work

One thing that was unintentional but could be a useful quirk with java graphics - if you write something like
Code: HTML [Select]
it will show up as Italic Bold With Underline[/b]. So, names can include html markup. It's a bit strange to think about, but it could come in useful. The html doesn't need to be well-formed. i.e.
Code: HTML [Select]
will still italicize the value NAME.Apologies for the code boxes - couldn't make it ignore the html tags in the post, and using special variables (<) doesn't seem to work
