+
+And here is RC2 of that plugin. I've changed a plugin syntax, because the old
+seems to be too enigmatic and it was hard to me to handle unnamed parameters
+in not hardcoded way. I hope that my changes are acceptable for you.

+ +This plugin can be used to color a piece of text on a page.
+ +It can be used to set the foreground and/or background color of the text.
+ +
+ +You can use a color name (e.g. `white`) or HTML code (e.g. `#ffffff`)
+ +to define colors.
+ +
+ +Below are a few examples:
+ +
+ + \[[!color foreground=white background=#ff0000 text="White text on red background"]]
+ +
+ +In the above example, the foreground color is defined as a word, while the background color is defined as a HTML
+ +color code.
+ +
+ + \[[!color foreground=white text="White text on default color background"]]
+ +
+ +The background color is missing, so the text is displayed on default background.
+ +
+ + \[[!color background=#ff0000 text="Default color text on red background"]]
+ +
+ +The foreground is missing, so the text has the default foreground color.
