How do I change the color of text displayed in the Spring STS Roo Shell?

I have a requirement to use Spring STS with a black background and green text.

Unfortunately the color of text in the Roo Shell is a dark greeny/blue color, making it almost impossible for me to see against the black background.

Is there a way of changing the text color in the Roo Shell?

I've looked through the STS/Eclipse preferences and can't find anything. I really hope it hasn't been hard coded. If there's no setting in the STS Preferences, is there a property file somewhere where I can set it?

I am using STS Version: 2.6.1.RELEASE

Thanks in advance

Solution

  • It is not possible yet to configure the background and text colors of the Roo Shell in SpringSource Tool Suite.

    It has been added as a bug by a member of the SpringSource team to be fixed in STS v2.8.0.M1. See - https://issuetracker.springsource.com/browse/STS-1894
