Hello peeps! I was wondering--is there a way to change the text color? I haven't seen any functions or commands. Im guessing there's a plugin or something like that. But if it's a plugin, i have codesurge and would need help putting that in--the only codesurge file is codesurge.exe.

Codesurge uses all the files from your default dbpro installation. just install plugins as per normal and they will work from Codesurge.

Or, if you would like the text background to not overwrite the screen background. you would do this.

Or you could use a text command for transparent text

Cool! Thanks

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.
