Notes

1. The MenuColor statement can only be used in a [menu] or [submenu] block in Config.sys.

2. If a menu block does not include MenuColor statement, the screens are displayed as white text (7) on a black background (0).

3. If a background colour is specified, there should be no space between textcolour and the comma and background.

4. Any syntactical error in a MenuColor statement causes the whole statement to be ignored without any error messages.

5. Colours specified in a MenuColor statement persist through all Dos screens until otherwise modified. Loading ansi.sys or a CLS command will reset the colours to the default white on black.

6. Setting a background colour to a "bright" colour (8-15) may cause the text to blink on some machines.

See Configuration Menu Statements for example.
