Is it possible to modify which pen number is used to highlight menus? I
just switched my program from 2 bit planes to 3, so I could get more colors
for the graphics. But now the menus when highlighted, use pens 6 and 7,
with ugly results. I'd like to change that but can't find out how.

As I vaguely recall (haven't messed with menus for awhile)…. the menus
are 'complimented' when selected. ie, if you use pens 0 and 1 for
fore/background, then the highlight will be 6/7 (or maybe 7/6, works kinda
like a sestina). I think if you use pens 2 and 3 for your colors, the
compliments would be 4 and 5. And if you used 1 and 2 (for example), the
compliment would be 5 and 6. I've created some interesting (and some
ghastly 🙂 menu text by varying the pen colors and using linked intuitext
this way. –Eet–
