It seems there is no way of changing the default colors used by the script editor, and if there is, the way is not clearly documented. For example, if your default editor color is set to a black or a dark color, it should be possible to change the color used to display strings. It is currently dark blue, a color which is difficult, if not impossible on a bad monitor, to read.

This makes the script editor very painful to use for me.

Reproducible: Always
