When you get time to think about it .... :-) Hard coding values always has its drawbacks as well as advantages. The editors that I use regularly are the Editor 2000 and MicroEmacs v4, both of which are set up with a black background, green ink, and the cursor is red. All of this with a QPC2 window in Windows. MicroEmacs is the most impressive, as its uses the full screen, has drop-down menus with the pointer environment, and its active with FileInfo2. Although, it too is showing its age, and could do with a GD2 colour re-vamp and other features ... Sedit is nice too, and as I get used to it more it will get used. >-----Original Message----- >Date: Mon, 13 Feb 2006 13:13:34 +0100 >Subject: [ql-users] Sedit 2.26 >From: Malcolm Cadman >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > >....... >Would it be possible to make the INK and PAPER configureable in the >"config" ? > >The default choice of a pale grey, with a pale blue cursor, I don't find > >easy to see.
