Section 5 - Instruction
=======================
This version of SEU Magic has the facility to change color attributes when
you are in edit mode of SEU. Make sure you have your own Private Library as
the current library.  This allows for unique setup from each developer - 
selecting your own attribute, without stepping on other developer's 
attribute. Note: Attribute is saved in the current library.

The Change SEU Color Attribute (CHGSEUCLR) command is used to change the
attribute used by SEU on edit mode. 

The command would look like this (help is available in the command):


                     Change SEU Color Attributes (CHGSEUCLR)                    
                                                                                
 Type choices, press Enter.                                                     
                                                                                
 Color  . . . . . . . . . . . . .   WHT           WHT, BLU, GRN, RED, TRQ...    
 Underline  . . . . . . . . . . .   *NO           *NO, *YES                     
 Reverse Image  . . . . . . . . .   *NO           *NO, *YES                     
                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                                
                                                                                
The first parameter COLOR (color to use) is used to select colors to be
used on F7 key. Choose the color keywords from the following:

	White (WHT)
	Blue (BLU)
	Green (GRN)
	Red (RED)
	Turquoise (TRQ)
	Yellow (YLW)
	Pink (PNK)

The second parameter UNDERLINE (Underline) causes a horizontal line to
appear immediately beneath the row. Type *YES to have underline started.
Type *NO not to have an underline. 

The third parameter IMAGE (Reverse Image) causes the row to appear as
dark characters with the color background selected. Type *YES to have
reverse image started. Type *NO not to have reverse image.


When you are in edit mode in the SEU (Source Entry Utility), press F7
at the cursor position on the screen where you want the attribute to
start (Note: Position the cursor on a blank byte. The attribute will
overlay if positioned on top of a character). Press F8 to stop the 
requested attribute.

For example:

	*Note: The quick brown fox yadi yadi yada.

Position your cursor on the "*", and then press F7.  If this is the first
time you are using this utility, the command CHGSEUCLR will be prompted.
Once you have selected the attribute desired, when you return to SEU, 
the attribute will take into effect immediately.  

Now position your cursor after the ':'. Press F8, and you will notice
the attribute will stop.

You can change the attributes on the fly. Pres F21 to get a command line
while in edit mode.  Type in the command CHGSEUCLR and prompt it. Enter
your desired attribute. Now go back to SEU and press F7 again. MAGIC!
