Hi,

Can you add new themes to C::B , specially dark themes ?
Code::Blocks SVN

You can not change the color of the UI (toolbars, status bar and so on) Codeblocks uses the system default theme.
You can change the colors of the editor:

Can these set of colors be added to C::B by default rather than later customization ?

I don't know what you mean. Can you describe more?
You can change the coloring of the code in Settings->Editor->Syntax highlighting->Colour theme

I don't know if there is a default dark theme. I imported mine from the wiki
Many colors can also be changed in Settings->Environment->Colours.
I have to admit that this is all a mess....

[Edit:] There is a installation instruction on the bottom: http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/Syntax_highlighting_custom_colour_themes#Installation

I mean why there is an installation separate from C::B initial installation.  I want that after just installing C::B I can go to Settings->Editor->Syntax highlighting->Colour theme and select from so many offered themes from there.

i think there are some licensing issues...
