Forum:Cool optional tool ready for your use
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Forums → Archive index → Panopticon archives → Cool optional tool ready for your use
I've included the CSS for you to be able to use a new tool called Fokus. With Fokus enabled through User:Your username/wikia.js, you'll be able to double click on a bit of text, and it will be highlighted for easier reading. I've not made it the default condition, because some people might not want the feature.
If you'd like to try it, just cut and paste the entirety of the following into User:Your username/wikia.js:
