There are two things I've found lacking in Owl's formatting support:
* Colors that are specified numerically are ignored instead of being
matched to the closest available color. Clearly, it would be
impractical to reimplement all of the features of X color
specifications, but support for at least basic RGB specifications
would be great.
* Nameless formatting environments don't appear to work. Ie, the
string "@{@color(red)Red} normal" should appear as "Red normal"
where "normal" is not formatted, but instead comes out as "@{Red}
normal", where everything but the first two characters are red.
Otherwise, Owl works quite well. Thanks for making a sane Zephyr
client. ]:--8)
