How do I install a color theme for IntelliJ IDEA 7.0.x

Question

I prefer dark backgrounds for coding, and I've downloaded a jar file containing an IntelliJ IDEA color theme that has a dark background. How do I tell IntelliJ about it?

Answer 1

Take a look here: Third Party Add-ons

You may have to extract the jar using a zip application. Hopefully inside you'll find a collection of XML files.

Go to File->Import Settings... and select the jar settings file
