This is the most requested item out of any of my blog posts or pages. People are always asking “how the heck do I use your Aptana color themes?” It’s actually easier than you think. Follow the un-aliased arrows in this 5-step tutorial to theming bliss. If you haven’t already, open Aptana.

1. Click on Window -> Preferences

aptana-1

2. In the pop-up window, expand Aptana -> Editors

3. Click the Import button for whichever language you want to import the colors into

aptana-3

4. Select the .col color file that you’ve downloaded from my site (or others)

Okay, okay. This one goes without saying. I just figured I should throw it in.

Hopefully this has gotten you off-the-ground with respect to Aptana color themes. If you have any questions, please feel free to post comments and I’ll do my best to get back to you. Thanks!
