Dark theme - contribution
Biplab:
Thanks Jens for clearing this.
I request you to restore it for the benefit of other users. An empty page is creating confusion and a poor impression of us all.

It's there again, with a note, that the themes are only usable with the C/C++-lexer.

I guess he was discouraged, because of Alpha's comment about c++-only themes.

"the user himself" here. I removed the content because I was discouraged by oBFusCATed's (not Alpha's), a developer, statement.

Unfortunately for me, MediaWiki only allows admins to delete a page once and for all - so I couldn't purge the page forever, which I would have done if I could. All I could do was overwrite the old content.
I politely request that the page be purged. Even though I had to answer "C++" to the question "What language Code::Blocks is designed for? (letter,2x sign):" while registering to write this reply, I don't really feel that contributions that only apply to C++ are welcomed by the developers.
To make myself perfectly clear: please, PLEASE purge the page once and for all, beyond recovery, like it never existed in the first place. I left Code::Blocks after this event, and I am sincerely annoyed that the content that I created and was dismissed was brought back.

That I can agree with.
Now off to delete the forum membership.

I guess, I've been misunderstood here, probably because English is not my native language.
What I've said is that we can't include the themes in the official C::B source code until they are finished or at least have themes for the more popular languages.
I have nothing against the page on the wiki.
Sorry if you've felt offended, but this was not the intend...

Both are developers, but you are right, it was oBFusCATed's commment I meant.
Why are you discouraged, if one developer of the whole team says, it does not make sense to add it to trunk ?
If there are two different opinions, people should start a discussion, not run away.
It would be a good point to start seriously thinking about a theming engine for C::B.
Because theming is not only interestant for users who just don't like the default look, but also for user with handicaps or for systems that are to be used in places with problematic light conditions.

I'm not sure if any of the forum admins can do that (except from our project leader and server owner, who has only been very, very rarely here in the last years).
I would be happy, if you would decide to leave it there for the benefit of other users.

Why do you think lowly of a whole project, if you do not agree with the opinion of one developer.
