Last week's news about Apple's use of SproutCore triggered a lot of discussion about the future of rich Internet applications, run-time environments, and JavaScript frameworks.

Specials Board: a Coda Seestyle Theme based on Ryan Bate's Rails. Projects> Color Schemes > Specials Board Specials Board Is a Light-on-Dark Text Editor Theme for Panic Coda and Apple Xcode Specials Board developed out of a need to find a low-contrast light-on-dark theme to alleviate light-induced headaches. Based on Ryan Bates’ beautiful, and subtle, Railcast Theme for TextMate, Specials Board re-creates the essence of that theme for Panic Coda; referencing both the Railscast theme as well as its inspiration, idlefingers by Damien Timewell. When Panic rolled out the Panic Coda 2.0 text editor they invited me to include the theme by default. Specials Board has also been extrapolated to Apple’s Xcode integrated development environment following the syntax color grouping rules of the higher contrast Midnight theme.

The Specials Board theme for Panic Coda 1.x includes .seestyle files for all programming languages that Coda supports out of the box. Word on the Street “Excellently done, sir. “Great theme! “This theme is great. “This [theme] looks great.
