Hello,
I've made a custom theme in SciTEUser.Properties, which override the
default white background in the environment, with results I can't see
the output letters of: start of execution, if error occurs

the start/end of execution lines are shown in #0000ff, the warning
messages in #610071, and #06060e the rest of the message

>ruby init.rb
C:/tools/Ruby193/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:
36:in `require': cannot load such file -- ../var/lib/music_library.rb
(LoadError)
from C:/tools/Ruby193/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/
custom_require.rb:36:in `require'
from init.rb:2:in `<main>'
>Exit code: 1

It is difficult for me to find where those colors are set (in
SciTEGobal.Properties) to override them. I've looked everything.

Any help would be very appreciated.

Thank you,
Kostas

IIRC, should be in others.properties

Indeed. Even more specifically, colors in the output pane are
controlled by the errorlist styles.

A reminder to those who are fiddling with colors and other settings:
It is recommended that any changes you want to make (whether to the
global properties or others.properties or anything else), put in your
user options file (SciTEUser.properties). This way, it is simpler
if/when you update to a new version of SciTE. (Plus, for those who
have customization affecting lots of properties files, this keeps all
those changes in one file.)
