Subject:      Re: Coloured SCL
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I recntly completed an enagegment where the SCL coding was done in color. Comments were green, SCL labels were blue, SCL code was black, and unresolved issues were red. Personally, I am not an advocate of colored text but when in Rome...

Anyway, I simply set four function keys with "color text red," "color..." which allowed me to skip back and forth between whatever color was required at the moment. This command applies to text TO BE TYPED, not existing text. I point this out because when first I began to respond to this post I was in the DMS, not a BUILD session. In DMS all existing text as well as text to be typed takes on the color specified.

Farther, in SCL, if a section of text has to be changed from black to green, for example, one could mark the text and then use the command COLOR MT GREEN where MT stands for marked text.

HTH.
