|| Eclipse: Aptana „Dreamweaver“ syntax highlighting

In the beginning of web development a lot of people are creating their code-files with Adobe Dreamweaver, a standard tool for beginners and designers, because it is in the Adobe Collection, but no solution for serious programmers. When a programmer leaves the text-editors and graphical-editors behind to use a serious IDE there are a lot of possibilities like Netbeans, Zend, Eclipse, Visual Studio and so on.


My choice for developing web applications is Eclipse with the Aptana Plugin. This is really comfortable for PHP-Development, but i always hated the boring and ugly built-in syntax highlighting. Searching on the internet for a nice color scheme was leading to some quite nice results, but I was missing the nice, clear and colourful syntax highlighting of the Dreamweaver, so I decided to create a color scheme similar to it. Example:

  1. Open Eclipse with the Aptana Plugin
  2. Go to Window -> Preferences -> Aptana -> Editors -> [langauge] -> Manage Colorization -> Import Colors
  3. Enjoy

Hi there, as you have recognized correctly this article is not up to date! This Theme was intended to be used with Aptana 1.5 (which was the last one to support PHP until version 3.0).

In the current release of Aptana Studio (3.0.2) somebody made a great Dreamweaver syntax highlighting which is integrated by default. However I created a slightly improved version of it, where PHP-tags are red, for example (which did not work for me in the provided one).

You can download the Theme from here: http://www.blackbam.at/material/Dreamweaver%20Blackbam.tmTheme

Go to Window -> Preferences -> Aptana -> Themes for import or activation and creation of themes in general in Aptana 3.
