ABSTRACT:
A user interface is disclosed which may take a data stream, or file having hyperlinks or functional text embedded therein. The CPU of the user interface may select distinct colors for each hyperlink so that such links are distinguishable. The color selection may be made so that each link has a button that that has a matching color for at least one hyperlink. The user interface associates a button having a color with a hyperlink having the same color, such that when the button is actuated, programmed execution of the function associated with the hyperlink occurs. Thus a mapping of button, to color, to hyperlink, to function may be established.
