i think as colors and background must work together,  
( \< user \>/processing/preferences.txt v.s. \< installpath\>/processingxxx/lib/theme.txt  
possibly should think again how to restructure and improve IDE regarding THEME.  
[see here](https://discourse.processing.org/t/changing-processing-ide-color-scheme-help/7244/19) or try [dark theme](https://discourse.processing.org/t/can-background-of-text-editor-be-changed/5657/2) first ( what even involves other icons ).
