^do( SpanStyle, text )^

Type: Macro

Purpose: Changes color and (optionally) font

The SpanStyle macro lets you swiftly apply color and font changes. The big mystery here was, “What should the primary argument be—color or font?”

We took a poll and the answer was color. So color is the 2nd arg; font, the optional 3rd arg.

This will replace the Color macro, which is now deprecated.
