Color coded

September 27, 2007

I’m playing with a new idea for a Freebase application, which will come in day or so.  I switched my text editor to do the white, green, cyan, magenta thing on black to reduce eye strain.  Where did this style come from?  I think I saw it on lots of Ruby blogs.  I can’t properly drop code into this blog because WordPress needs a code plugin, otherwise I would want it to look like this all the time.

    That style is one of the ones from the wonderful OSX text editor, TextMate, which is frequently used by Ruby programmers. I guess the style migrated onto the blogs too.
