If you want to use this colour scheme for C++, then C++Builder (the descendant of Turbo C) supports it!

(I work for the company that makes it, btw. We just released a large upgrade of the toolchain and it's a very solid Windows 64-bit compiler.)

This reminded me of the days when I was learning to program in Turbo Pascal, which used the UI of Borland's Turbo Vision (1) framework.

Turbo Pascal theme was much better, imo. 31-colored identifiers are so DOS <4.

The blue background wasn't that nice IMHO. I always preferred the original Turbo Pascal with black background.
