Abstract: System-wide content-based text stylization by establishing an array of predefined stylization criteria, intercepting text output generated by an operating system to a graphics device driver, rasterizing the text according to the predefined stylization criteria and passing the rasterized images to the graphics device driver for display. The array of predefined stylization criteria includes criteria that modify font size, font type, font color, font highlighting, underline, bold, italics and invoke character replacement. Stylization may be based on parameters such as syllables, consonants, vowels, and punctuation and/or applied by a lookup table against predefined strings.

Abstract: A method of modifying individual graphic user interface controls according to predefined settings including the steps of identifying at least one graphic user interface control object with a plurality of states and/or event handlers, assigning a user-selectable visual modification to the control object, associating the visual modification with a state of the control object, saving the assignment to a configuration file and applying the visual modification to the control object upon display of the control object in the associated state or upon firing of the associated event handler.
