Description:
              
The applet takes one bitmap or a text string and highlights it 
with one or two artificial spotlights. 
The specified background color in the bitmap will not be highlighted.

Configuration:

* "demicron" (must be "www.demicron.se") Required parameter.
* "reg" (must be "A00001") Required parameter.
* "foreground" (hexadecimal value) Foreground color. 
* "background" (hexadecimal value) Background color. This is also the color 
  that the light won't touch!
* "font" ("Helvetica", "TimesRoman", "Courier", "Dialog", "ZapfDingbats") The 
  font type.
* "fontsize" (integer number) The font size.
* "width" (integer number)  The applet width in pixels.
* "height" (integer number) The applet height in pixels.
* "sleeptime" (integer number) The time between movement in ms (should be about 100ms).
* "step" (integer number) The step in the scroll movement. Should be about 3.
* "two" ("yes" or "no") Two lights?
* "italic" (text yes or no) If you want a italic fontstyle.
* "bold" (text yes or no) If you want a bold fontstyle
* "text" (text) The name of the bitmap or the title text.
* "threshold" (integer number) Filtering threshold value <25. All pixels
  with the color red<threshold, green<threshold and blue<threshold will 
  not be highlighted.

Changes to the last version :

Time synchonization problems fixed. Hilitetitle now accepts ordinary text
with specification of fontsize, font and font style
and the background color that will be filtered away is now configurable.
Note that the "bitmap" parameter has been renamed to "text" instead.
The image will be centered on the screen so that the applet can
have any size.
