You can specify the color of text foreground and background using the CSS syntax. For example, this:

This is normal text.
%%(color:red)
This text is red.
%%
This is normal text again.

produces this:

This is normal text.

This is normal text again.

Specifying colors#

The CSS property name is "color" for foreground (text) colors, "background-color" for background colors. In CSS, if you specify multiple properties they must be delimited by a semicolon. For example, the syntax to produce red text on a yellow background would be:

%%( color: red ; background-color : yellow ) Gary Snyder %%

as in: Gary Snyder

You can use any valid CSS color specification, e.g., see the CSS color names:

Inline text formatting#

This is normal text. %%(color:red;)This inline text is red.%% This is normal text again.

produces this:

This is normal text. This inline text is red. This is normal text again.
