[Pmwiki-users] WikiStyle for links colors?

I just did first of 4 installations of 0.4 (I'm always amazed and
gratified by how easy that is!). My link color issue is solved. I
asked the question because I was playing around with reverse text stuff.
And a blue background swallowed the link text. Now it won't.
I don't have much need for more control of link color beyond that, at
least at my current 'skill' level.
Thanks again, Patrick, for PmWiki!
