There are no color schemes and you cannot save and load your own. When reinstalling, you must reconfigure manually

It works wonderfully. It autocompletes the builtin CMake variables when using set(). It even shows documentation tooltips when hovering these variables. Indent/unindent works fine when using default Eclipse CDT settings.

Syntax coloring is nice, but the problem I found with this plugin is that it does not support untab/unindent shortcuts, so I have to backspace 4 times, which is annoying.
