[TextMate] Why is all the background colours dark ????

[Mats Persson]

Hi all,

I just downloaded the PHP & Smarty syntax bundle, and found that it too 
was based on a dark background.  Can someone please explain this 
seeming 'obsession' with dark backgrounds when 99% of all other apps 
are the basic white background with black/coloured text ???

What is it that I don't get about it ???  (I personally find it very 
hard to read text that way.)


Kind regards,

Mats
