Hi Bob! I have a problem with the light green and white font on the Advent of Code website. It's acceptable on my iPad but very unclear (to me) on my Windows laptop which is my main J computer.
Thanks, Richard ________________________________ From: Programming <programming-boun...@forums.jsoftware.com> on behalf of 'robert therriault' via Programming <programm...@jsoftware.com> Sent: Saturday, December 9, 2023 4:46:50 PM To: programming <programm...@jsoftware.com> Subject: Re: [Jprogramming] Advent of code newbie Hi Richard, What part of the display do you find difficult to read? Is it contrast or font size or colour or layout? If you are on a Mac you have a lot of control over this with the Accessibility settings (well not layout). Perhaps if you gave a link to a page that you do not find difficult to read, it could be useful.
