Hello,

I would like to be able to emulate the options in JEdit's Editor Scheme
Selector in Eclipse. Autumn is my favorite schema.

Does anyone know of an Eclipse Plugin that will allow this?

AND/OR

How do I change the background color of the Java Editor?

This is driving me nuts!!!

TIA

James Davis

I managed to get a display similiar to JEdit Editor Scheme by downloading
and installing ColorEditor into the Eclipse plugin directory. I had to
restart Eclipse and the Computer a couple of times before I was able to link
the Color Editor to a File Extenstion.

To change the background, I changed the Windows system background throught
the Control Panel.

Is there an easier way to do this?

In the preferences, modify the "Background Color" setting on the
General>Editors>Text Editors page.
