Hello,

there is no single place to configure a dark theme. If the desktop 
environment already is dark, all the Qt widgets in eric should be dark 
as well (at least it was over here on Kubuntu when I switched to a dark 
theme). In order to get the syntax highlighter to show a dark theme, 
just import one of the themes (eric6_Dark_1 or eric6_Dark_2). What is 
left thereafter are various other color settings. Just browse through 
the configuration dialog.

Regards,
Detlev
