I'd like to try the solarized color scheme in BBEdit, to improve readability. But I haven't been able to make it work. Has anyone had success?

It would be great to have this built into BBEdit.

Yes, but the instructions given in the main Solarized distribution for installing the scheme don't apply to BBEdit 10.  They should go in ~/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Color Schemes.  See https://github.com/rcarmo/textwrangler-bbedit-solarized.

Sure, it was trivial as long as 1) your running v10 and 2) you ignore solarized's directions.

You drop the file into .../Application Support/BBEdit/Color Schemes/ as I recall and then select it from the drop down menu in BBEdit's Text Colors pref pane.
