Dark Arduino Theme

Wasted much of a day building a dark theme/skin for the Arduino IDE.

####INSTALLATION

  1. PREFERENCES.TXT
    Replace your preferences.txt with mine - note the only main change is setting editor.antialias to true, which makes your fonts look WAY better!
  2. THEME FOLDER
    Look in ~/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Resources/Java/lib and replace the theme folder inside (making a copy of the original in case you hate my changes!) This folder contains a 'themes.txt' file with the bulk of the changes (mostly colors)
    Buttons and tabs are stored as image files, which have been modified to fit the color scheme
  3. SCREENSHOT
    Self-explanatory :)

####PSD 'BUTTONS' FILE The theme folder also includes a Photoshop (.psd) file for the buttons which includes a saved selection for easier changing of the background. This can be accessed through the 'Channels' panel.
