I have had my own .owlconf ever since kretch showed me it was possible to
write one, but no, it doesn't have a 'weird style', AFAIK.  It does contain a
line to "set colorztext off", as I don't like other people overriding colors
in my zephyrs.  It seems that when I remove that line, the text dissappears.
Has the colorztext variable been deprecated in favor of a different method?

Thanks,
Joshua
