Hi, I'm a Github noob so if I should be posting things somewhere else or in a different format, please let me know.

I just wanted to say thank you for developing Doctor Dark. I learned how to code in 2nd grade (late 70s) and was an IT exec, but I was rear ended in 2014 and have suffered brain damage. I am significantly impaired as I can no longer count or do basic math. 60 minutes of programming and I have a hard time keeping my balance. 90 minutes and I am slurring my words. I had to stop driving because my brain cannot process that much information at one time. My eyes are also very light sensitive so I bought some Lifx bulbs and tune them to make it easier on my brain. I wear sunglasses indoors, even at night. I had to cover up my windows, and even painted my walls black. Doctor Dark enables me to recreate the color schemes I learned how to program with so my eyes/brain don't have to work as hard. Thank you for your efforts in making these features available as I would not be able to re-learn how to code without it. So thank you w0lfschild, and to all who contribute. If I can test or do something on my end to help, I would be happy to help in any way I can.

Seriously. This is freaking amazingly fantastic über useful awesome sauce! This is what we've been begging Apple for for many, many years.

Frankly I believe that you should make a Pro version of this that has support and allows you to put much more effort into making it work with any and all apps possible with an already prebuilt white/black lists and additional support, etc. For example, Pages and TextEdit are almost awesome with it, but at least Pages should probably have some white areas or tweaked color zones to make it look right.

Also some not-so-black (perhaps just slightly less black for some apps that would look better) areas would help.

All of this would be more doable with a paid version of this. Heck, I'd be happy even if Pro version features were even back ported to open source after you got things solid after a few weeks or months.

All-in-all, thanks so very much for this like the original poster. You have 6 users' gratitude right here in my office for your work.
