I was developing 30 years ago and I love what’s available today. Nostalgia is fine, as far as it goes, but things change and sometimes for the better. This is one of those cases.
I was using emacs then, I’m using emacs now, and I’ll be using emacs in another 30 years.
That red text on a blue background is atrocious.
I used Borland Turbo Pascal and C++ all through school and I have to agree, these were the most intuitive and efficient IDE’s I’ve used.
I miss the blue colors
Nothing stopping you from doing that to your terminal :p
I cannot find a good combination of colors that works well for me.

the text needs to reedable
I don’t know much vim, but emacs has themes and I’m sure that vim does too.

EDIT3: Here’s a Borland C color scheme for vim:
Does solarized count as blue colors?
Too dark for my taste, I can’t stand dark themes they hurt my eyes. But thanks for the suggestion.
I used the Borland Turbo Vision based UIs a LOT back in the day. They were very good for their time, but they can’t hold a candle to modern user interfaces.
