Wade Cook's reply (forwarded):
TortoiseBlame doesn't really work for me because the background color of
the change pane is white and the text is black. The reason I use dark
colors is because its easier for me to see bright text on a dark
background. I would prefer having the color settings but if that is not
possible then being able to use the default text font color with no
coloring would be okay.

Wade,
If you reply to this, please make sure you copy the TSVN mailing list as
well.

Stefan,

Can we change the progress dialog so that if (R+B+G(background) <
small_number) use system text colour for all lines?

Can the scintilla controls use the system colours instead of always
being black on white? This is very noticeable in all dialogs that use
scintilla if you set a different colour scheme. I just tried 'High
Contrast Black' in Win2K and the commit dialog looks very odd.

These don't look like high risk changes, and we have a few days left to
test before 1.2.0.

Simon
