yes, I second that question!  It's 'yet another feature', but it would be nice!

In fact I think every window should be configurable: font, background and foreground color, etc.
Those who use the editor with black background, also like to have the rest of the app with black background.
Namely:
-Management window (Project, Symbols, Watches, ...)
-Messages (Build log, Debugger, To-do list, ...)

Those who use the editor with black background are soo stuck back in the dark pages.

I see, though dark "pages" didn't sound me familiar. :lol:

Anyways, black background hurt a lot less the eyes on a CRT.
In the dark ages where I used MSVC6 (very dark ages), I couldn't stand the white background.

I agree! I'd like to change background and font color too. It's a must.

Count me in too. I've just begun trying Code::Blocks, and I've come to the conclusion that it is completely unusable for me because all monospace fields appear to be hardcoded at Courier New 8pt. Typical Windows programming, sigh... This is completely unappropriate under X11.

Intergalactic: Thanks a lot for sharing that! Can you submit that into the bug reports at sourceforge.net so it doesn't get lost?

Thanks!
