Contour Label Color Background

[Joe Covert]

Patrick ....

1)  set cthick 6 (or higher) will change the contour thickness in the
display.  Anything less than 6 only affects the printed image.

2)  I believe to change the "label" background you have to issue a "set
background" command then the "set ccolor" command and then issue your
display command.

See if this gets you closer to what you're looking to do.  Can't answer
your font question sorry.
