Blitz3D colour scheme.

If you are looking for programming fonts there are good ones at www.proggyfonts.com
I use ProggySquare although I changed it above as not everyone will have it.

I like mine a little like the delphi highlighting .. but also a lot easier on the eye's so no sharp colours. just enough to clearly id resv words and strings ...

So if you get sore heads from time to time then check my cool(as in cold) theme.

PS, that site for the coding fonts is sweet. the fonts fit well with max, and they are nice and clear to read. perfect.

I use essentially the same style I use for all the other Blitz IDEs, which is 11-point Verdana, white background and visual basic style colors.

Here's a screen from Blitz+ IDE, I have it the same in Max except you can't set a different color for numbers.

this is a very handy thread for restoring your preferences after an update.

Yeah, Its a bit annoying having to do that.

Heres what my IDE looks like anyway... I guess I got used to the Blitz3D scheme too much! (Dont nick my code!...hehe)

*edit* Settings near top of thread.

Do you have those fonts installed? ie. In the Windows font folder
You can get them from www.proggyfonts.com

What is the filename that holds these variables under Macos anyone ?

Paul "Taiphoz"

(Posted 2005) [#14]

Jay - I didnt do anything m8, just stuck the fonts into the fonts folder and set the font in the IDE.. or I might have just typed it in the ini file myself...

Dont recall...

@DannyD

For v.1.10 on OS X the IDE config appears to be in /Applications/blitzmax/cfg/macide.cfg

Note that the options you get are quite different from the windows IDE as they are completey different codebases at the moment.

Also there is a style sheet for the help pages here /Applications/blitzmax/doc/bmxstyle.css

Make sure you take a backup before editing those files yada yada usual disclaimer.

Is it possible to make the cursor fatter? I can never see which line caused an error.
