Hi Mosè,

I fiddled with the colors a bit: made the code a bit more subdued so
that it does not interfere at small magnifications, and the AUCTX
letters off-white instead of white. I used xcolor mixes and defs, adding
one line but also saving one, and at the same time making it easier to
experiment with colors. The off-white letters increase contrast IMO.

Best,

Tamas
