Colour Your Text

One of the most effective ways to make text stand out is to use colours.  This is easy to do using keyboard shortcuts.

First, select the text you want to colour.
Second, press ALT+T to open the Text menu.   This will show you the list of operations you can perform on the selected text.   Notice the "C" on Color is underlined.
Third, press "C" to open the Color submenu.
Finally, press the letter that corresponds to the colour you want to use.

So for example, to turn the highlighted text Red, you would press ALT+T, then C, then R.

After doing this a few times, it will become second nature.
