Did you try changing the text color using the Tools -> Properties -> Text tools? This works for me (Debian PPC), while using the Style menu gives me the results you describe. Is this new behavior of the Style menu intentional, or a bug? I assumed it was a bug, since the other features of the Style menu apply to selected text. --Bill ********************************************************************** This email was brought to you by the Mutt E-Mail Client (www.mutt.org) and Debian GNU/Linux (www.debian.org) Use GnuPG for confidential email.
