Dear All,

I want to show a two dimensional data file as a color plot.  I'll use
the following lines:

data=ReadList("data.txt", Number, RecordLists->True];
ListDensityPlot[data, Mesh->False, PlotRange ->{-20, 20}];


My data is in the range of -20 to 20. Now I get a nice picture showing
the data in grayscale. This is not what I want.
I would like to show my data with colors in the following form:

Blue gradient below zero
Red gradient above or equal zero

so the value of -20 should be very blue, 0 should be white and 20 should
be very red with all shades of coulors in between. The reason for this
requirement is that the data is a difference of two datafiles. I do not
know how to do this. Please help me.


Many thanks,

Nick Art
