Hi Tomasz,
Sorry, please disregard my last question -- I'm playing catch-up and didn't
read ahead far enough to see this response from you.
You are absolutely correct about creating understandable,
readable code for publication. Many's the time I've had to turn to
the help files to refresh my own recollection of a code sequence someone has
posted to understand what it is. And in that vein the use of comment lines
in code are always appreciated. (Another good habit I don't always follow
either.)
Peace and Justice --- Patrick

colors in complex Titles
Hello,
In fact I don't have plans to discountinue
them, but I want to encourage good writing style.
Espace sequences are
short but CRYPTIC, so you are free to use them in your own code
but if you
post on public list TRY to make you code readable and avoid cryptic
constructs.
EncodeColor is readable so it is recommended.
Best
regards,

Hi
Dave,

That title code Les posted is for setting the title line in a

The \n command is a forced carridge return which will set the

The \\c command is for defining colors -- e.g. \\c01 will print in
