Hi Hans, All,

I find this nomenclature confusing and a little confusing from a design standpoint!

 	1)  Color of the text background should be separate from the rest
              of the cell background

	2) the names should reflect to what they apply

That said we should have:
	CTBGC == Cell text background color
	CTC      == Cell text color

	CBGC == Cell background color 
                      or
         CC      == Cell color

	CBGCR   == Cell background color in the space right of text
	CBGCM  == Cell background color in space middle of cell( above below text)
	CBGCL   == Cell background color in the space right of text

True, these are a lot of options/parameters, yet it offers the most flexibility and
a cleaner interface. Furthermore, one can understand the names of the parameters.

Another, advantage is that one could and at a later point a feature for inverting the
color of the text according cell color and/or text background color.

regards
	Keith.
