write file question

Huh? I write in grey-on-blue.

No, not directly because a text file only contains unicode characters, which don't have color information. You could automate Wordpad or Word to write a .rtf or .doc file which can contain color information. A simpler alternative might be to define your own file header format, containing color information (and anything else you want). Then your application could read this header and display the following text in the desired color.

Why is common sense not common? Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level where they are an expert. Sometimes it takes a lot of work to be lazy Individuality is fine, as long as we do it together - F. Burns

If his question was worded more precisely, I wouldn't have to hold back like that. :) File bits are color-agnostic...
