[plt-scheme] codeswarm

I ran a little script to determine the most common file types  
encountered in the revision history, and these are the top 10:

.ss		59874
.c		11565
.h		9323
.cxx		7055
.scrbl	6478
.cc		4954
.txt		2440
.inc		1894
.scm	1203
.xc		1014

(the number on the right corresponds to the number of times a file of  
that type was added or changed in the repository)

My guess is that the yellow simply gets lost among the large quantity  
of blue, purple, and gray in the video. I configured codeswarm so that  
the Scheme color comes from from .ss and .scm files, the C/C++ color  
comes from .c, .h, .cxx, and .cc files, and Docs comes from .scrbl  
and .txt. That makes the total number for documentation files to be  
11,432, which is about a fifth of the number of Scheme files, and  
almost a third of the number of C/C++ files. If there is any  
significant amount of documentation files other than scrbl and txt  
(and I presume there may be), then the files didn't show up in my svn  
log.

Although it could always be a typo in the regex I used, or something.  
I don't see any, though...
