By default, the color CVIM Color menu describes each of 32 available colors
with a unique number (1 through 32). Modification of these color
descriptions can make your system easier to use. While it is possible to use
the procedure described above to modify the default color names to best
reflect your own installation, the Color CVIM USER–PAK offers an easier
way to perform this commonly required change.

Unlike the text editing tools described above, users at any security level can
use the following procedure to rename a color.

First, select

Color

from the Main Menu. Move through the list of colors by

selecting

until the desired color name appears. If the color

is disabled, enable it by selecting it with the light pen.

Note: The first color modified directly from the

Color

menu must be

enabled in order to gain access to the
