/*
Select a single text element, or a text element in a container. The container must have a transparent background.
The script will add an aura to the text by adding 4 copies of the text each with the inverted stroke color of the original text element and with a very small X and Y offset. The resulting 4 + 1 (original) text elements or containers will be grouped.
If you copy a color string on the clipboard before running the script, the script will use that color instead of the inverted color.
