Zenburn Theme for EmEditor

I have used EmEditor as my text editor on Windows for several years. It is extremely fast and has some nice features like spell check, column select, a data-separated values columnar mode. It handles every text format imaginable. There are grammar files for syntax highlighting available for a huge number of languages.

It doesn’t come out-of-the-box with a dark color scheme that I really enjoy, so I have put together my favorite Zenburn color scheme.
