Hi all,
I've noticed that when you're configuring syntax highlighting, the colour
selector has a number of spots where you can save frequently used colours.
This helps a lot to get a uniform colour scheme across all the
syntax-highlighting editors.
Unfortunately however it seems that any colours you set up are lost when you
restart Eclipse.
Is there any way to make Eclipse remember the custom colours you've set across
restarts? (Or can you edit the 'master list' somewhere?)
Thanks,
Adam.

This is most probably an OS issue. On OS X my list of custom colors is
global across ALL applications that use the native color picker.
