description
My other desktop apps have a light background and using a dark scheme for coding hurts the eyes when multiple apps are open.

NOTE: This will NOT look good if you use a thin font like Terminus. In general, smaller, thinner fonts require schemes with higher contrast and color. Subtle schemes like earthburn work best with antialiasing and larger type---Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, Consolas and Monaco.
