Hi Chris,

Not necessarily, you could also use .* for the file, couldn't you?
I also haven't used it in a while, but I remember it as a way to
overwrite properties for individual histograms, instead of plots, and
since linecolor/style is a histo property and not a plot property I
thought this might work?

As Andy mentioned, you might just have to be careful to build the
regexp correctly, in particular including those square brackets?

Cheers,
Frank
