Are themes available in SPF Lite? Due to my failing eyesight the white background is very difficult to work with.

meshuggenah: Previous versions of SPFLite had a THEME command for saving and reloading color themes, but there seemed to be little interest from users and it was dropped. However the CFGMaint utility shipped with SPFLite has a similar facility. So ... here's a quick and dirty sample of an old 'Green Screen' color scheme. (Attached below) Copy the attached file to your \User\you\Documents\SPFLite folder. (Or wherever you have chosen the default SPFLite storage folder. Open a CMD window, and change (CD) to the SPFLite Install folder (where SPFLite2.EXE is located.) Make sure SPFLite2 is not running. Issue the following command: CFGMAINT -IMPCOLOR ODEFAULT It will prompt for you to choose an input file. Choose the one you copied to the \Documents\SPFLite folder. This will load the sample 'green screen' color screen. You can 'tweak' these colors using the menu items which Robert described in the previous post. George
[UPDATE] The sample I provided is real 'quick and dirty' and by no means complete.
If anyone is running 'green screen' and has a more thorough set of colors, please run CFGMAINT -EXPCOLOR ODEFAULT to export the colors
and upload the file.
[/UPDATE]

Hi folks,
Here is a 3270+ palette and theme to get you started
I use an augmented "green on black" colour scheme, so it looks a bit like the old 3270s did, but makes more use of the wider SPFLite colour palette.
Note: The first 5 entries in the OPTIONS HILITES section have been changed to foreground colours.
I use these for very bespoke highlighting which others here are unlikely to need or want, so you may wish to revert them to their defaults.
To make this into a colour "theme", I also standardise the colours for files of different programming languages. For example, I tend to use CYAN for language keywords, BRIGHT-GREEN for built-in functions, etc across all languages. Hence I also include the relevant AUTO files that implement this theme. (Be advised some are still work in progress - don't shoot me.)
George, I've no objection if you would like to distribute any of this, asis or modified, as a starter set.

Stefan: Sure, I'll bundle them up and put it in the Contributed files section.
