Re: [wsjt-devel] Decode Background Colors - Suggestions

[Neil Z. <ne...@te...>]

I agree with you Don on a way to just turn off color coding, or just let 
the user decide what they want, but trying to accommodate everyone is 
turning into the predicted black hole.

As far as JT-Alert, Laurie is only one person, and while he's been 
trying to get the code moved to a cross-compile platform, its a slow 
process.
