<h1>Syntax Coloring preferences</h1>
<p>The <b>Syntax Coloring</b> preference panel specifies how C/C++ source code is rendered. Each element category (Code, Comments, and Preprocessor) contains a list of language elements that may be rendered with its own color and style.</p>
<p>Note that general text editor settings such as the background color can be configured on the general <b>Text Editors</b> preference pages. Fonts may be configured on the general <b>Colors and Fonts</b> preference page</p>
