Hi there, i hope you can help me and this is the right address, i tried mai=
ling idle-dev@python.org but it bounced, please forward if possible,=0A=
=0A=
ive got IDLE 3.7.9 on windows 10, and windows 10 is set to dark mode, but a=
ll windows by IDLE are bright as a painful light, is there any way to make =
it all like dark mode?=0A=
=0A=
i managed to switch the console/edit area to dark mode using the attatched =
hack, but that looks even worse cause now title, menu/scroll and status bar=
 are bright and only the center edit is dark, a bit better then before but =
not as nice as i want. I know from expirences using tk based software under=
 linux that it is possible to get something like dark mode, i dont know how=
 exactly i did it but i guess it was not that hard, probably some color cha=
nges in the desktop enviorment that not only changed gtk's and qt's behavio=
r but also tk's or some other stuff like that thing that makes xterm switch=
 to dark mode...=0A=
=0A=
But under windows i would like that it , in an ideal case, just acts based =
on the global setting introduced since windows 10, maybe implement that in =
coming versions...=0A=
=0A=
Or is there any other way to hack this by putting some tk config files some=
where.=0A=
=0A=
i would aprichiate any help on that.=0A=
=0A=
thanks a lot in advance,=0A=
