The ability to color Help and other files is very useful. We ask
that you try to stick to these guidelines for color usage so that
we can have some consistency in their use:
Here are some outlines for using color on a white text file:
Help (Filename) colored cyan.
Laws (Law) Colored green.
Attacker/Killer/Thief colored pink.
Order/Guild (Order/Guild) colored green.
Clans (Clan) colored red.
Syntax for sytax references, colored yellow.
Deities (Deity) colored cyan.
Deadly/Dealies colored red.
Config (+/- option) colored yellow.
If you wish to add other colors to your file, please use good
taste, make sure it is readable and don't get too whacky. If
you follow the above guidelines and stick to using white for
all other text, it will keep the text solid and legible. Should
you choose not to use any colors at all, that is also okay, the
above guidlines are merely for proper use of color, white is
always acceptable.
In addition, please keep in mind that the following topics should
not be colored except by their defaults:
- Help (area name)
- Help (skill)
- Help (spell)
- Help (class)
