Hi!  I have access to a copy of SoftPC, and I was playing about with it
and found myself extremely dissatisfied with the text color (white.)  I
was idly wondering if there was any way to make it something
more...IBM-like, and the color green came to mind :-).  I tried mucking
about with it using ResEdit, and tried changing the WIND and wctb
resources, among others, but was unable to affect it.  I suspect that it
is becuse it is determined by the softPC itself, not the Mac resources.
Does anyone know a way to make the text come out green?  I haven't
mentioned any pc-side solutions because I don't know any- I'm a mac
person.  But those would be great too. :-)  Thanks!
