first thing you should do is to delete plist file from file:///Users/cristi/Library/Preferences/com.macromates.textmate.plist <div class="gmail_quote">On Feb 20, 2008 4:03 AM, L-J Lacey <<a href="mailto:larmyia@yahoo.com">larmyia@yahoo.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">Hi! I have searched everywhere I can to find the solution to this, so excuse me if it's available somewhere...I can't find it! What I think happened is that my daughter accidentally pressed "something" and suddenly textmate isn't displaying any colours when I'm coding. I've been to the preference panel, and tried changing the theme. downloaded new themes. nothing works. I can get the colour of the background to change, but none of the text will. It's doing my head in and I'd really appreciate it if anyone knows of a solution. thanks L-J ____________________________________________________________ L-J Lacey subtle as a fish developing websites today for tomorrow <a href="http://www.subtleasafish.com/" target="_blank">http://www.subtleasafish.com/</a> <div class="WgoR0d"> ___________________________________________________________ Support the World Aids Awareness campaign this month with Yahoo!
