Editor reverts to light theme on every start

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Start OpenSCAD
2. Click on 'Edit'-menu, 'Preferences', 'Editor'
3. Change 'Color syntax highlighting:' to 'For Dark Background'
4. Exit OpenSCAD
5. Start OpenSCAD
6. 'Color syntax highlighting:' has reverted to 'For Light Background'

Expected behavior;
'Color syntax highlighting:' stays permamently set.

Screenshots;

Even if I import this before start the setting is reverted;

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\OpenSCAD\OpenSCAD\editor]
"syntaxhighlight"="For Dark Background"

Thanks. Not interested in any third party editors for this (I prefer Notepad++ myself for alot of what I do).
The internal editor work fine but it is a cosmetic bug introduced recently.

On linux, the theme setting is also reset. The version is similar.

Yup, this happens to every dev snapshot I've tried after OpenSCAD-2023.12.28.ai17902-x86_64.AppImage, that was the last one that still kept it's Editor background setting.

Same here.
Os: Linux Slackware 15.0.
It works ok on OpenSCAD-2023.11.14.ai16996-x86_64.AppImage
Color settings is lost on startup on OpenSCAD-2024.02.11.ai18430-x86_64.AppImage
