I really put this together as more of a proof on concept and haven't gone a lot further with it. The downside is that it works by creating a display blob for every element of the display. This works when you have arrays of less than a few hundred but when you start getting results that are larger the overhead to provide the information for display slows down the system. For qt I just had the result show up as separate window to display the font colouring and didn't change the colouring in the original j workspace.
Let me know if you get the colouring working with an approach that requires less overhead.
