PowerShell Studio 2014/2015 - Editor Preset - Dark theme

This post was published in 2015 and may be outdated.

Today a quick post to share one of the editor preset I created for Sapien PowerShell Studio.

Because I prefer to work with a dark theme, when installing PowerShell Studio, one of the first thing I do is to set my layout to Editor Only and put a Dark theme like the “Visual Studio 2013 Dark”.

On the editor side, the tool come with a couple of preset but none of them are dark/black. So I created my own…

Update: Adding details on how to change the PowerShell Studio theme and link to Anonymous Pro font

PowerShell Studio Theme

PowerShell Studio comes with a set of themes, in my case I select the Visual Studio 2013 Dark

PowerShell Studio Editor theme

You can create your own going into FILE/OPTIONS/EDITOR

Changing color of your preset

Once your preset is saved, you'll be able to switch quickly between editor themes

Where are the presets stored ?

By default, you’ll find the preset in the following location

PowerShell Studio 2014 C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\SAPIEN\PowerShell Studio 2014\Editor Presets

PowerShell Studio 2015 C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\SAPIEN\PowerShell Studio 2015\Editor Presets

Other Fonts

If you are interested, there are some really nice font out-there that are nice to use for scripting:

Anonymous Pro http://www.marksimonson.com/fonts/view/anonymous-pro

Source Code Pro http://sourceforge.net/projects/sourcecodepro.adobe/

Those can also be integrated on your blog using Google Fonts Api, but it will probably make your blog/website a bit slower for the users.
