The following code applies a 3 pt blue stroke to red-filled glyphs, but
has the undesirable side-effect of changing the colour of TeX rules to
the stroke colour. Is it possible, does anyone know, to control the
stroke and fill colour of TeX rules (a) independently, and (b)
orthogonally to that of TeX glyphs ?
