Hi, thanks for your reply but what I really mean with "themes" is called "scheme" in KE terms. I don't want to change KE's interface. I just want some cool syntax colors such as with Textmates user-built themes http://macromates.com/wiki/Themes/UserSubmittedThemes
The schemes already available in KE are not so beautiful, in my opinion.

as best i can

if theres enough interest i can port some more

The scheme for Komodo that I've been using is one called "charcoal rainbow" and is a dark theme that's in the same vein as the Wombat scheme mentioned. I'm also using the Monaco font on both Linux and Windows.

i hacked a script up to convert VIM to KSF ..
if you find any you want converting let me know
included screenshots

Schemes

just pick the font you code in and your off ..

@ coderneedsfood and jwynia:

Cool!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for sharing ;)

@ coderneedsfood:
another beautiful Vim theme waiting for conversion to KE:

Hi, it's mine :) thanks.

Also beautiful:
http://www.monokai.nl/blog/2006/07/15/textmate-color-theme/
(it's a Textmate theme)

Monokai is a dutch graphic designer. Here is his page at Colourlovers:
http://www.colourlovers.com/lover/Monokai

I think ActiveState should set up a site section where users can upload their themes and extensions, similar to the Firefox add-ons site. So we will have all the stuff in one place. Notice that these themes and extension are also compatible with their full commercial product, so all AS customers will benefit.

Manu, have you seen this recent post?
http://community.activestate.com/forum-topic/attention-extension-hacke

themes to me means icons and all that jazz
a color scheme page is what we need
i can pop them on my wiki or something but i'd rather Active State give us a spot to put them ?

@ coderneedsfood & kib2:
are you able to create a script to convert Textmate themes to KE format?
thanks

i don't have the source for my script here .. will look into it when i get it

or the this script to convert schemes from other editors?

I did a port:
http://straightnochaser.org/goodies/komoboRuby.ksf

Tested with Python, HTML, CSS and Javascript.
Hopefully it looks ok in other languages, too.

it looks quite good

I finally converted the Chocolate Liquor theme from Vim 7.1/Cream myself:
http://mysite.verizon.net/bcorfman/chocolateliquor.ksf

I find this to be one of the most soothing color combinations for my eyes when I'm coding for long periods of time. I've tested this with Python since I use that language almost exclusively.

I've made a kind of mishmash of Komodo-Dark, Spectacular, and Monokai.

Screenshot:

http://dev.jmoiron.net/komodo/spectacular-inc.png

Theme:

http://dev.jmoiron.net/komodo/spectacular-inc.ksf

The font used is Inconsolata, which is similar to Consolas and TheSansMono, but available for free:

http://www.ghostscript.com/~raph/type/myfonts/inconsolata.html

I just wanted to note for anyone thinking about making a script or writing a tool that Komodo stores it's schemes as BGR Hex converted to base 10; so if you want to do something like convert HTML color (which textmate and vim both use) you have to switch around the hex pairs; ie: '0x123456' becomes '0x563412'. This took a little figuring out and frankly I can't find any documentation at all on this site.

Thanks for all the great dark themes, however Komodo Edit appears to have trouble rendering the command output window in the correct colors. The standard background is always white regardless of the theme settings.

Has anyone else seen this problem? There doesn't seem to be setting that controls it. This is only noticable when outputs have been piped to the command output window.

It's a bug:
http://bugs.activestate.com/show_bug.cgi?id=75552

This is the most beautiful color scheme I've ever seen for development. It was intended to be the easiest possible on the eyes for programmers who spend long amounts of time writing code and staring at a monitor.

Another person created it and I ported the scheme over to Komodo. I made sure it looked correct on every major language.

Here is a screen shot for preview:

Your eyes will thank you.

Enjoy!

Is the script finished yet ?
I would be glad to have it !
My wish is to convert the scheme Monokai ^^

I tried to convert monokai as best as I could so here it is:

http://lab.wiredmonkeys.net/Monokai_komodo_theme.ksf

I couldn't reproduce it as it's best since Komodo has way less syntax options than Textmate ... but still it's not bad =)

This is my scheme Pastel.ksf

Some schemes I've edited..
http://www.box.net/shared/gli8hqyb05
Hope you like them

ps: There are some I grabbed here..and edited.
I've not created no one of them.

Thank you.

it wasn't complete anyway . sorry guys

I wanted a color scheme similar to Dreamweaver's PHP code coloring. I made this scheme, which is not identical, but pretty familiar coming from Dreamweaver's code view. Here is a preview of what I ended up with:

Hi!
I would be thankful if some one converts for me the Mac Classic theme.
Regards.

Hi, I'm new to Komodo and I was trying to customize colors for syntax highlighting.
In Preferences > Fonts and Colors it looks like there is no way to choose a color different from those ones displayed in the box, right?
So I was trying to edit the .ksf file to get my favourite color scheme running, but I can't understand what those numbers mean..
does anybody know anything about it?
Thanks in advance!

Preferences > Fonts and Colors holds all the color settings there are AFAIK.. no need to mess with the .ksf manually.

thanks for you answer, but I see no arrows by the color box (don't know, I'm using Komodo Edit 5.1.3 on Ubuntu 9.04), I'll try to ask on the support forum

Howdy, I've finally gotten around to finishing up a Django based scheme. I'd found one a while back but it was Python only, and was generally incomplete.

Regardless, most of the color values are taken straight from the Django homepage (I'm assuming they haven't copyrighted them or something ~twitch~). Unfortunately, color isn't in my DNA so any suggestions on how to better organize the colors would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. Does there happen to be a theme repository yet?

I converted the Notepad++ default theme for PHP, JS, CSS, XML and HTML to Komodo, so if anyone likes it, feel free to use it :).

here is a theme i made based on Obsidian theme just HTML , CSS ,Javascript .
