mcolor(5)                                                         mcolor(5)

NAME
     mcolor - color and reverse video macro

SYNOPSIS
     troff -mcolor [option ...] file ...

DESCRIPTION
     A macro package for color selection and reverse video printing on
     PostScript printers. The package is compatible with most existing
     macro packages and includes the following macro:

     .CL color text
                 Prints text in color. No arguments restore the default
                 color (black). If text is omitted, the selected color
                 remains in effect until another color is selected. If two
                 arguments are given, the text is printed in color and then
                 the default color is restored.

     Both the text and background color can be selected. A color argument
     of "color1 on color2" prints text in color1 on a background in color2.

     Named colors must be listed in the colordict dictionary in file
     /usr/lib/lp/postscript/color.ps.
