This is an ado which I last touched in 2004. These days I would recommend rather the approach discussed in

        Q1/10   SJ 10(1):143--151                                (no commands)
        demonstrates the use of statsby to prepare a reduced
        dataset for subsequent graphing
However, your desire for a multicolour graph can be met: 
ciplot  price mpg weight length, hor rcap(lcolor(black pink blue green)) mcolor(black pink blue green) msymbol(S T D O)

I am having difficulties with specifying scatter_options in -ciplot-. I
am using version 1.1.0 of -ciplot- (written by NJ Cox and installed from
ssc) on Stata 11.1 for Windows.
I want to change the symbol and color of the markers. According to the
help file this can be done by specifying twoway scatter options. I type
* Example starts
sysuse auto
ciplot  price mpg weight length, hor rcap(lcolor(black)) mcolor(black)
msymbol(S)
* Example ends
It seems that only the first variable is shown according to the
specified options. I had a look at the ado-file but couldn't figure out
a solution.
