RE: SFLPGMMSGQ - Colorize?

[Joel Fritz <JFritz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Color coding anything on the screen is risky in an environment where end
users have control over their screen colors.  A couple of years ago we
changed one of our key merchandising apps to color code various store
attributes.  The VP in charge of the department was using a color scheme
that made some of the color codes invisible.  He wasn't pleased. 

We had a contractor for a while who insisted on using a utility that color
coded source.  I use a black on white color scheme because I sit in a high
glare location.  Color coded source isn't much help for me.  I wrote a small
utility to remove the color attributes.  Very handy. <g>
