Default color scheme for Blocek? (Users)

Hi!
I am finishing the new version of my editor Blocek. It contains really many new features.
But I want to ask you whether the default color scheme for distribution should be the traditional black text on the white background (here) or the scheme I prefer and personaly use with Blocek - the white text on the green background (here).
(Or something even else?)

And of course, you can everytime change the colors setting.

Yep, you are right, light grey on blue is really common in DOS. So the default color theme will be looking like this

However I am not sure about the default colors in Turbo pascal. I think that it is a yellow text on blue.
However for many years (decades?) I use this scheme.
