Styles

Stored in styles.ddf or DDFSTYLE data lump

Styles.ddf allows you to define the background colour/image and text font/colour/scaling information (and sounds too) for various parts of EDGE's user interface. It may undergo significant changes (without keeping compatibility), and it might even be scrapped! USE AT OWN RISK.
