Hello,
Being an reverse engineer, I'm an avid user of HxD. And by avid I mean everyday at least one instance if running constantly on my computer, and I must have spent hundreds of hours on this program already. However the UI is too bright for so much time, so my question is, would you consider doing a dark mode ?
I know you're using Delphi, one (very) simple way would be to add a launch parameter and if detected you can call something like
TStyleManager::TrySetStyle("Carbon"); (that's C++ VCL, but I guess Delphi has the same).
It's not perfect, but at least gives some rest for the eyes!
Keep up maintaining this software, I couldn't find anything good in all other OSes (Linux, macOS, ...)
Thanks

Re: Dark mode
I am not ignoring your request, I just reply to those when they were implemented, or which need clarification.
You would need to make sure all custom controls would also adapt. A quick and dirty implementation is not something I like to do.
Dark mode is not a priority right now, I am focusing on features that keep me motivated.

Good explanation why this isn't a quick fix:

Newest Delphi version have dark theme support built-in: https://blogs.embarcadero.com/new-in-10 ... ide-theme/
I am on XE3 though. Professional version of newer Delphi are too expensive.
Apparently still a work in progress by MS, not meant for desktop apps yet:
