Now I know what you’re thinking if you’re a BBEdit user then you probably already know these dark color schemes exist, right? Well that’s true for many of us longtime BBEdit users, but that’s certainly not everyone, and I’ve spoken with people who were not aware that they can customize the appearance of text editors in general (or even Terminal.app for that matter). You can always change back to the default color scheme, or any of the BBEdit light color schemes at any time, simply by returning to the same Color Scheme preference section of the app. Some of the other darker schemes are quite nice too, but like all matters of appearance, what you like and prefer is just a matter of personal preference. The BBEdit Dark color scheme looks fantastic with the broader Dark Mode theme in Mac OS, but if you want a little more contrast than the “Xcode Dark” color scheme might be what you’re looking for since it uses brighter text. The effect is immediate and assuming you have any active window open you’ll immediately see the visual change. * BBedit can use the dark color schemes without the general MacOS appearance set to dark mode, but if you’re aiming for a cohesive dark mode experience than you’ll want to toggle Dark Mode on first. Pull down the ‘Color scheme’ dropdown menu and choose one of the dark color schemes: “BBEdit Dark”, “Xcode Dark”, “Toothpaste”, “Douce nuit 4”, or make your own by choosing “New”.Select the “Text Colors” preference from the sidebar.Pull down the “BBEdit” menu and choose “Preferences”.Put the Mac into Dark Mode and then open BBEdit *.Using Dark Mode Color Schemes in BBEditĪccessing the BBEdit dark color schemes is simple:
#Bbedit themes mac os
You can use these same color schemes in Light mode, or in much earlier versions of Mac OS (or BBEdit). To be clear, using the dark color schemes in BBEdit does not require Dark Mode on the Mac, it just pairs well together.

If you spend a considerable amount of time in a text editor for scripting, programming, development, code review, or writing and editing with a markup language, and you also work on a Mac at night, or in dimly lit areas, or even if you just prefer darker color themes and darker themed syntax highlighting for your text editing, then you’ll almost certainly want to explore and use the various BBEdit dark color schemes.
