Photoshop 6, you'll find some additional options on the Swatches Palette
menu. Most noticeably you'll find that you can load swatches directly
from the menu. As long as the ACO swatch file is located in your
Adobe\Photoshop 6.0\Presets\Color Swatches folder, the swatches will be
listed on the menu, saving you a few steps when loading custom swatches.
If you add a new swatch file while Photoshop is running, you'll need to
close and reopen Photoshop before they will appear in the menu.
 Another
difference in Photoshop 6 is that you have the option to view swatches
as thumbnails or as a list. The list view shows a larger color swatch
with the color name next to it. In thumbnail view, you can still see the
color names by holding the cursor over the swatch for a few moments.

in Photoshop 6, you'll find there are two icons along the bottom of the
swatch palette for creating new swatches and deleting swatches. You can
