Looks like I am in a similar camp to Bregma I code exclusively in vi using the awesome (tiling) window manager on ubuntu/gentoo. The coloscheme is a customization of zenburn.

If I ever have to code in light theme, I use a modified version of Oblivion, I love oblivion in dark and light mode :D

A sample of Codelite version

Code::Blocks 12.11, with my custom dark theme based on Monokai, on my old 6-yr old laptop. Just installed VS2013 on my new laptop, and will convert the theme.

I use to use the default settings in VS, regardless of the UI colour drama version 2012 got. Since update 3 however I am using the blue (VS2010) theme. Nothing else is different.

For office etc I have the black ribbon theme and for blender I have the Ubuntu theme, settings and layouts for everything I use is almost always close to default.

Anyone have flux installed as well, I dim the brightness down to 5600 from 6500 Kelvin during the day when the sun goes down so dark becomes even darker.

The week side of syntax highlighters (who I love and i see most coders love to ;/) is that they are not able to distinguish between

- languuage keywords

- variable names

- type names

- function names

In ideal i would like to get for example

- languuage keywords (violet)

- variable names (green)

- type names (gray)

- function names (brown)

but in my syntax highlighter I can only get

- languuage keywords and simple type names (green)

- variable names , type names, function names (brown)

Codelite provides different syntax coloring for the followings, which pretty much covers everything.

- Language Keywords

- Identifiers

- Local variables

- Workspace tags

VS2013 now also has extended support for this on C++ :)

Could they set different colors for one: function names and the other: for variables? this is the main division.. (type names the third)

I appear to be one of the few working with Code::Blocks. I'm using a custom colour scheme based off of Vim.
