Thanks for solving one problem. I think I found a slightly easier
variation. I just need to specify color(none) instead of "255 255 255".
Still, it seems that the documentation needs changing. The help file says
you can get rid of lines by changing lcolor or lwid or lstyle, it doesn't
mention changing color as a way to get rid of lines.
In fact, this brings up another issue -- the complexity of keeping straight
whether you want to change lcol, blcol, clcol depending on the situation
(and l bl cl modifying other features). It seems that you should be able to
use just l if there's only one potential line to change in a situation.
