For all those who have this problem with dark gtk2 color schemes and gnome-inform7, you can make gi7 explicitly use a light color scheme by creating a little script somewhere in your $PATH (i.e. ~/bin/gi7):
#!/bin/sh
GTK2_RC_FILES=/usr/share/themes/Clearlooks gnome-inform7
This way you should be able to read the documentation.

I'm looking forward to the development version, that's for sure :)
You are right about the cursor color, it was a bug in the color scheme I used.
I understand that you don't want to distribute two versions of the documentation, that would be quite a hack indeed. I wrote Graham a mail about the HTML files, maybe he will find the time to change his documentation generator to a CSS-based approach.

Can you give me an example of a string that makes the editor slow down?.

Actually, I think disabling elastic tab stops does solve the problem. I didn't have the problem for several hours and when it came back, I disabled elastic tabs and cursor movement was smooth again. But I still don't know what's triggering this and therefore can't reproduce it easily.

In the development version that you must be tired of hearing about by now, you can use any color scheme installed on your system in the Source panel. Basically any color scheme that you can pick in Gedit's preferences, plus the traditional Inform schemes. The Game panel will also respect the desktop theme-- this isn't implemented yet but it's planned.
The cursor color seems to depend on your...

This has also been implemented in the development version.

This has been implemented in my secret development version which should see the light of day sometime in the next six months. ;-)

Hi Abka, thanks for all your reports today. This one, as you suspected, is likely a problem with GtkSourceView. If you are using elastic tab stops or auto-numbering, then try turning those off. If that solves the problem, then let me know and I'll reopen the bug.

I tend to change the GTK color scheme quite a lot from a light (black on white) to a dark one (white on black), for I need good contrast because of my bad eyesight.
When using a dark color scheme, the cursor in the source pane is invisible it appears white on white.
The General Documentation is always white on black (due to the hard-coded tags in the HTML files under...

It would be convenient to read the Standard rules inside the IDE. There is such a multitude of syntaxen with comments in the Standard
Rules, that one can't possibly keep them in mind all the time.
As Standard Rules by Graham Nelson is an extension too, this issue would go away, when bug 2562639 ("Open extension" submenu seems to be empty) is fixed.
