Folks,
I often pay attention to the search terms people
are using to access my web page, since I am in
the information providing business. Well,
"business" is probably the wrong word, as I am
sitting here working on income tax returns right
now and it's pretty clear "hobby" or "pig farm"
would better describe my situation. :-(
In any case, I notice a lot of searching for the
terms "cgplot black background" lately. This indicates
to me that people are confused about why Coyote Graphics
sometimes show up in a graphics window with a black
background, and sometimes they show up in a graphics
window with a white background.
The fundamental reason they do this, of course, is
that they are trying to please you, like the
Golden Retriever at my feet, whose only aim in
life is to please me (assuming, of course, that I
get her a biscuit every time I walk into the
kitchen, otherwise, the hell with me).
If you are interested in this subject, and want
to know how to *always* use windows with white
backgrounds, like any sensible person, you can
read the details here:
