The following options are available:
• Set embedded language color - When this option is selected, you can define the colors for source
code (for example, JavaScript embedded in an HTML file). For HTML, the syntax color-coding recog-
nizes the <script language="???"> tag and uses embedded language colors for the new language. In
addition, for Perl and UNIX shell scripts, you can prefix your HERE document terminator with one of the
color-coding lexer names to get embedded language color-coding. For an example, see
Setting Colors
for Screen Elements
• Screen element - Select the screen element before changing the Foreground and Background col-
ors. Most of the screen element items are obvious except for those in the following list:
• Window Text - This is the color of other text which is not a specific syntax element.
