Hi, There are two things that I like very much in the previous color scheme.
1. the local variables and the parameters were displayed with gray and instance variables and classes were displayed with black. This had the nice advantage of distinguishing both the classes and the instance variables in one glance. You could argue that this introduces a new visual variable, but the choice of the coloring was actually quite intuitive and with basically no cost: - all variables are shown with shades of gray (thus requiring only one mental mapping), and - the darkness is used to show the "prominence" of a variable: the larger the scope the darker the variable 2. The other nice thing in the previous coloring is the coloring of matching parentheses. This is quite nice when using blocks for scripting.
