Hello everyone,

How do I print reverse text in windows?

in DOS: 

include graphics.e 
 
procedure norm_text() 
  text_color(BRIGHT_RED) 
  bk_color(WHITE) 
end procedure   
 
procedure rev_text() 
  text_color(WHITE) 
  bk_color(BRIGHT_RED) 
end procedure   
 
norm_text() 
puts(1,"hello"    &"\n") 
 
rev_text() 
puts(1,"hello"    &"\n")

This works

in Windows:

procedure norm_text() 
  setTextColor(Window1,BrightRed)    
  ????????????(Window1White) 
end procedure 
 
procedure rev_text() 
  setTextColor(Window1,White)    
  ????????????(Window1,BrightRed) 
end procedure 
 
norm_text() 
  wPuts(Window1,"hello") 
 
rev_text()  
 wPuts(Window1,"hello")

I don't want to change the background color of the whole window. Just the line that says "hello".

I must be missing something here.
