hi,

there is a default, #textColor in the themes
and for the colorisation, you can find the definitions in 

SHTextStylerST80>>#darkStyleTable

I would also like to take a deep look and see if with your help can document the theming. You think that themes now are more coder friendly or is Dark theme still a hack ? 

(just noticed it right now): Try to revert to a "regular" theme and tell me what color is the text cursor, that should partially answer your question :D

no, it is not a hack.
Dark theme is a combination of two things: a refactor to move out hardcoded colors (they are everywhere) and the theme itself. 
the cursor color is also a hardcoded value someplace there (not the fault of the theme :P). 

but... #installFullTheme should be used between dark and lighter themes to restore all values. 
If you choose dark theme, to go back you should first execute:

Pharo3Theme installFullTheme. 

that should restore everything as before. 

so well� I do not like the theme design, but the dark theme is following its guidelines. Then is not a hack, but it has some limitations :)
also, that�s why it is integrated in Pharo4 and not in Pharo3� most probably it need some iterations until is ready.
