and found "base dark" to be the easiest to understand and modify.  I 
probably should have derived a modified theme instead of changing some of 
the colors in the base dark these, but I didn't understand quite how 
everything worked so I took the easy way out.

One more reason I found it hard to adjust the colors is that so many of the 
syntax colors have those JEdit names, like "literal2_color".  What the heck 
does that map to?  If I could have made a change, reloaded the settings, 
and immediately seen the result, I would probably have stayed with it 
longer.  But, at least on my system, I had to restart Leo each time.  A 
mapping description would have been very helpful.

My system is Windows 10, 64-bit Python 2.7, Leo 5.7b2.
