Load Adobe Swatch Exchange as colormap

Loads an Adobe Swatch Exchange as a colormap.

You are now following this Submission

When making a non-standard, non-jet colormap I am often at a loss for creativity. The website kuler.adobe.com however, is a great way to generate color themes. This function loads in ASE files generated from kuler (and other Adobe programs) and creates a colormap.

This function uses the matlab file central function singlehex2num which is included in the .zip.

The code for this function was inspired from the help of this documentation for the file format.
