CYCLE COLOURS <Alt>+Z
This function allows you to set the colours for a block of text to produce
an effect where the colour cycles from one value to another. The back-
ground will be set to the current background colour. The current text
colour determines the range of text colours as follows:
Current colour | Colour range | Example
-------------------+------------------------------------+-------------
Black | DarkGray - LightGray - White | Testing
Blue | Blue - BrightBlue - BrightCyan | Testing
Green | DarkGray - Green - BrightGreen | Testing
Cyan | LightGray - Cyan - BrightCyan | Testing
Red | DarkGray - Red - BrightRed | Testing
Magenta | DarkGray - Magenta - BrightMagenta | Testing
Brown | Green - BrightGreen - Yellow | Testing
LightGray | Brown - Yellow - White | Testing
DarkGray | White - LightGray - DarkGray | Testing
BrightBlue | BrightCyan - BrightBlue - Blue | Testing
BrightGreen | BrightGreen - Green - DarkGray | Testing
BrightCyan | BrightCyan - Cyan - LightGray | Testing
BrightRed | BrightRed - Red - DarkGray | Testing
BrightMagenta | BrightMagenta - Magenta - DarkGray | Testing
Yellow | Yellow - BrightGreen - Green | Testing
White | White - Yellow - Brown | Testing
Use the arrow keys, <Home>, <End>, <PgUp> and <PgDn> to resize the box
specifying the area that will be effected. <Tab> toggles between the top
left and the bottom right corners when resizing. The <+> key allows you to
alter the number of colours that will be used vertically - just the first
colour in the range, the first and the second, or all three. The <-> key
allows you to alter the number of colours that will be used horizontally.
If you don't understand this explanation, just give it a try on a big
block of text and press the <+> and <-> keys a couple of times until you
know what's going on.
