The default Visual D color for keyword in VS Dark theme is dark blue, which blends into the background and is not visible. Consider changing the default to something bright and contrast-y.

I think keywords look alright with the dark theme, Visual D uses the same color as other languages. I guess you are referring to the color of user defined types (e.g. "string", "size_t"). Some token string colors also don't work too well with dark background. I'll have to figure out how to change default colors depending on the theme...

No, I'm talking about color for words such as 'string'. A default installation of Visual D on VS 2012/3 uses a dark blue color.

I have added support to change the default color of some color types if a dark theme is detected (restart required as VS doesn't update its color cache). Please try it in v0.3.38beta3 which can be found here: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/visuald/releases
