Put text editor code in color
-
The text editor is hard to read. It was made harder when it was changed to a monospaced font “because that’s what developers/programmers are used to looking at” (even though the rest of us are not). It’s difficult to pick out bits of code from bits of text.
How about making all the code on the page appear in a readily distinguishable color — red, bright blue, orange, anything legible but contrasting with the black text. It occurred to me this might be possible because code in our CSS editor appears in assorted colors. Mind you, I’m not suggesting multiple colors. But if all the code appeared in a color that contrasted with the text, it would be much easier to see. Easier, for example, to find the closing codes that are separate from their opening codes (with the text in between being black).
Just a thought.

That may not go over well for those who are colorblind as red and green present issues for them.

But most can distinguish a color from black. I’m only suggesting black text and a single color for all the code.
