Hmm... haven't tried it but very light green might actually be a nice background, blue or red just seem a little "strong" for a background.

Could be because they are at one end or the other of the visible light spectrum while yello and green are more centrally located.

Other differences are that both red and blue are primary colors in both additive (monitor) and subtractive (printer) color mixing while green and yellow are primary colors of only one of them.

Food for thought?

Looks pretty good xgp.

How do I load these schemes? Do I just create a prefs file somewhere and then later I can choose it in the IDE preferences section?

xgp · Post by **xgp** » Sat Sep 08, 2007 2:29 pm

@pdwyer:
yes, copy-paste that information and save it to a file. Later: Purebasic IDE>Preferences>Import/Export and choose the file you've saved that information.

humans can perceve much more variations of green than of any other color.
this has reasons in the natural environment of humans.

maybe it's even so, that green is in the middle of the visible spectrum,
because the human* perception is centered on green because of the environment.
(*and of other animals)
if Chlorophyll would shine Infrared, than Infrared would be the middle of the visible light spectrum.

I'm sorry I missed this post. But I'm too proud of my scheme to miss out!

Nice!

This is my scheme (code is from srod):

http://i28.tinypic.com/1043nz6.png

It's lousily based on visual c++ ide. Hey, works for me

I've used bitstream vera sans (mono) for quite a while now... I switched back to Courier because I couldn't stand the truetype anymore for long periods of time (I know, it should be the other way around!)

@mistrel
Could you please post the color scheme file?

The font is Courier New, size 10. I also use Microsoft's Clear-Type Tuner to tweak the sharpness.
