Description Tod Creasey CLA 2002-04-25 16:10:10 EDT 
If you are in High Contrast Black the differences in the Compare browser are 
shown in Grey - this is unreadable with White text.

STEPS
1) Change your system colors to High Contrast Black
2) Compare two editions of a project from a repository
3) Select one of the differences - all of the highlights are shown with a grey 
background which is unreadable with white text.

Note that you need to set the color of Other in your Java Preferences to white 
in order that this occurs. I would suggest using the color used for list 
widgets that lose focus for this highlight (perhaps 
SWT.COLOR_WIDGET_LIGHT_SHADOW)

This is important to be able to claim accessibility, since Compare is a major 
feature and high contrast black is an important setting to honour.
