Subdued TeXShop Color Scheme

Instructions to make TeXShop’s color scheme more… acceptable.

TeXShop has default font and colors that is not conducive to long stretches of writing.  A more subdued color scheme, and a serif font, makes it much more pleasant to look at:

Font selection is contained in Preferences.  Color change, however, requires going into command line (Terminal, A):

The color scheme in the diagram is achieved with the following lines:

defaults write TeXShop commentred 0.4

defaults write TeXShop commentgreen 0.4

defaults write TeXShop commentblue 0.4

defaults write TeXShop commandred 0.09

defaults write TeXShop commandgreen 0.28

defaults write TeXShop commandblue 0.51
