Hello,
I noticed that a lot of the syntax highlight bundles use different colours, and on top of that also other decoration such as underline and italics. My experience is that italics in most fixed-width fonts does not look that good and is bad for readability.
The other thing is that the italics is mostly superfluous: the aim is to differentiate text from surrounding text and most of the time, this is already achieved by using a different colour and using italics as well does not really help.
So I propose that authors of syntax highlight bundles use italics sparingly and only if it really has extra value to use it.
How do other users feel about this? And does anyone else have tips for increasing usability of syntax highlight bundles?
Jeroen.
