Themes

In version 1.9.9.7, PyScripter introduced an updated theme (skin) engine that allows the loading of external themes. You can download additional themes (skins) from this site. The downloaded skins contain files with the "skn" extension. Place these skn files in the directory %APPDATA%\PyScripter\Skins and the external skins will be automatically available in PyScripter. (%APPDATA% is the directory pointed by the corresponding environment variable).

You can also create your own skins by using the skin editor provided here.

Shortcuts and Color Schemes

You can import and export shortcuts and syntax highlighting settings using the commands under Tools, Options, Import Export. This allows PyScripter users to share shortcuts and syntax highlighting settings. If you have customized these settings to match those of popular IDEs and editors such as Visual Studio and IDLE, you are encouraged to submit them to pyscripter@google.com. A repository of such submitted settings is available here.
