Subject: [PATCH 24/37] $INBOX/_/text/color/ and sample user-side CSS
Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2019 20:52:40 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190121205253.10455-25-e@80x24.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190121205253.10455-1-e@80x24.org>

Since we now support more CSS classes for coloring,
give this feature more visibility.
