This method works for me. It's taken from this article. Unfortunately the commands showed there doesn't work because the files that we're supposed to download are not available. So here are the modified steps including the content of the files. Create or override the file /usr/share/gtksourceview-2.0/language-specs/rhtml.lang And also create or override the file /usr/share/mime/packages/rails.xml

羡慕textmate那个黑乎乎风格的可以下载 本darkmate.xml文件 到/usr/share/gtksourceview-2.0/styles/ 重启gedit，通过edit -> preferences 里面的Font &Color 选择此风格。
