I know how to set the colour of text using the ink command, but what if you want to have different blocks of text appearing in different colours.
What is the command to colour a specific block of text different to the rest?
Also want to set the size etc.. different!

Er, the obvious solution would be to set the ink and size, then use TEXT to write the text on the screen, then change your ink and size and then use TEXT for the next block.

Or doesn't that work?

E.g.


N.b. apologies for my wierd humour!

(And you need to set the font to one that supports multiple sizes, the default doesn't seem to!)
