I know the Python parser can parse colored links. But it does so by
inserting a text color function in the text stream. What I meant was that
the Palm viewer should color links itself. I.e. if it encounters a link
function in the text stream it should color the link's text according to
user preferences.

Note that that by hardcoding text colors in the text stream, you cannot have
a different color for visited and not-yet-visited links. Currently the
viewer displays not-yet-visited  and visited links by using underlined text
and dotted underlined text respectively. Having different colors for links
would be far easier for the user to see.
