Removed outdated comments and unnecessary commands
{{todo|Add more examples of usage of textbackgrounds.}}
Pages, paragraphs, words can have a background: color or screen. Note that "screen " is depricated deprecated in MKIVMkIV.
(See, eventually, the [[manual:details.pdf| details]] manual for further explanations.)
== What if textbackground doesn't doesn’t work? ==
The textbackground commands require [[write18]] to be enabled; see that page for more information.
In the following example, we also reduce the textwidth and bodyfont size.
