                           Color Configuration

     Color  configuration  in  GoldED  is  a  bit  complicated,  and you
     probably have to experiment quite a bit, if you want make your  own
     setup. For your convenience, I have added a number of example color
     setups, provided by some of my  many good users. I suggest you  try
     them all and use the one  that suits you best, perhaps tuning  it a
     bit to your taste.

     The COLOR keyword uses the following syntax:

     COLOR <window> <part> <colors>

       <window>  AREA, ASK, BACKGROUND, BRAG, HEADER, HELP, INFO, MENU,
                 READER, SHADOW, STATUS.

       <part>    BLOCK, BORDER, BTYPE, EDIT, HIDDEN, HIGHLIGHT, INPUT,
                 KLUDGE, NOSELECT, ORIGIN, QUOTE, SELECTOR, TEARLINE,
                 TITLE, WINDOW.

        The <colors> are composed of [blinking] <ink> [on <paper>].

       <ink>     Black, Blue, Green, Cyan, Red, Magenta, Brown, LGrey,
                 DGrey, LBlue, LGreen, LCyan, LRed, LMagenta, Yellow,
                 White.

       <paper>   Black, Blue, Green, Cyan, Red, Magenta, Brown, LGrey.

      For monochrome setups we instead have:

       <ink>     Normal, Highlight, Reverse, Underline.

     The SHADOW color does not need a <part>, because it is global.

     The paper color always defaults to Black if not specified.

     If <part>  is "BTYPE",  the <color>  is a  value in  the range 0-3,
     which  defines  the  type  of  lines  used  when  drawing menus and
     windows:

        BTYPE 0 is single horizontal and single vertical lines.
        BTYPE 1 is double horizontal and double vertical lines.
        BTYPE 2 is single horizontal and double vertical lines.
        BTYPE 3 is double horizontal and single vertical lines.

     The default border type is always BTYPE 0.
