Custom Editor Themes
Keyman Developer embeds the Monaco open source text editor. The
highlighting and styles for the text editor are customisable with a JSON
file configured in the Options dialog. The JSON
file must be a valid Monaco theme
(passed as second parameter to monaco.editor.defineTheme).
Example
{
"base": "vs-dark",
"inherit": true,
"rules": [
{ "token": "comment", "foreground": "ffa500", "background": "303030", "fontStyle": "italic underline" },
{ "token": "comment.js", "foreground": "008800", "fontStyle": "bold" },
{ "token": "comment.css", "foreground": "0000ff", "fontStyle": "bold", "inherit": false, "background": "808080" }
]
