I am putting up a proposal about using colors in vanilla the help
patches for discussion. I think these patches should

- Emphasize and encourage users to use the color features of GUI
   elements by showing that in their respective help patches.
- Use colors in vanilla help patches to highlight essential objects and 
actions, for
   example to indicate the one single bang button I need to press to start an 
example
   therein.
- Stick to the non-color versions otherwise when no highlighting is
   necessary, as for example the toggles for loudspeaker channels in
   testtone.pd

and please get rid of blue labels.
e.g. the sliders-help.pd has a prominent blue "Sliders" label i nthe center of the patch.

now blue is a significant color in Pd patches: it shows which thingies are selected.
so i always try to deselect the text when i have the sliders-patch open.
