DOS ain't dead - Collection of color themes for the FED editor

Collection of color themes for the FED editor (Users)

posted by rr , Berlin, Germany, 15.08.2022, 21:07

As Jim Hall recently published a YouTube video about Setting the colors in the FED editor, I'd like to share several color themes of mine. I created these nearly two years ago and most are inspired by other more or less known programs.

Because FED capabilities regarding color themes are limited, often I couldn't just replicate the original program's themes, but had to decide which way to go. Some themes only exist for completeness, because I found them boring, but YMMV.

I would be happy to see your themes too. :-)

Do install any of these themes, quit FED and open your FED's fed.cfg file with another text editor. Then paste the values from the forum over the # colors block.

Notepad2 does not support different color themes, but it inspired me enough to create these rather dark variants.
