Just wondering if anyone else is using PyScripter as a Python editing app.

I've been runnign my python IDLE in a black background and now find the default white of PyScripter to be blinding.

For the life of me I can't find the menu to change the "highlighting" portion of the program (where you open and modify .py files).

I did however find some exported configuration files that has already had the changes i want imposed: http://code.google.com/p/pyscripter/wiki/Customization

However I'd still like to know how to do it myself so i can spend some quality time with this editor. Thanks!
