Add "Syntax Color Themes" #522

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
On the Editor Options/Syntax Colors panel you can select different sets of 
colors for different programming languages.

While this lets you select any color combination you may want, it makes it hard 
to switch from one configuration to another. It would be great if you could 
export and import your color configurations, giving them a name so that you 
could easily switch between color configurations and use them in different PCs 
where you have PyScripter installed.

Ideally, there would be a "Theme" dropdown combo box on the Syntax colors panel 
that would let you select among your saved configurations and a button to 
export/import your configurations. PyScripter could ship with several color 
themes to chose from. There are already several "standard color themes" 
supported by other editors, such as Eclipse, Notepad++ or Vim, which could be 
imported into PyScripter. Examples are Bespin, Obsidian, Monokai, Zenburn, etc.

You can export Color themes already (Tools, Options, Import/Export, Export 
Highlighters) and you can save them in whatever file you want.  You can move 
them to other computers and import them.  There is already a library of 
highlighters (albeit rather small) at

While this _almost_ covers the requested functionality, I still think this is a 
valid feature request. For starters I don't think that it is obvious that this 
feature exists.

What I'd like is for this feature to be integrated with the Editor 
Options/Syntax Colors panel. At the very least I'd like to be able to select 
among the "installed" highlighter settings through a combo box on the Editor 
Options/Syntax Colors panel. Also it'd be nice if PyScripter came with a few 
preloaded themes (including at least a dark colored one).
