How do I change the color that Bluefish uses for comments in my code?

At the moment its the default light grey on the white background, which is insanely difficult to read.

I had the same problem and I couldn't figure out how to edit them in the preferences window. So this is how I fixed it.

Make sure Bluefish is closed and open:

~/.bluefish/highlighting

in your favorite editor. And look for a line like this:

patterns: javascript:Comment (C++):0://.*?$::2::#cccccc::1:1:

and change the hex code to a color easier to read.
