Plugin responsible for Eclipse syntax coloring [message #1061268]

I'm writing a plugin that at one point presents portions of the user's Java code back to them.

When I present the code to the user, I would like to use the color scheme that they set in Eclipse to be consistent with their taste.

I have already isolated the keywords, literals etc. All I need to do is grab the preference colors and apply them to my Stylers.

How can I access the preferences programatically and also, what plugin is responsible for its presentation?

I think you'll find a more full example of what you're trying to do in org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.javaeditor.JavaTemplatesPage#createPatternViewer(Composite) . Reading another plug-in's preferences isn't usually the right solution.
