I was able to change all the other SQL syntax coloring in Eclipse Preferences, but the normal (non-Sql-syntactic) text is still black and I couldn't find where to find the setting for that. Black text is kind of hard to read against an almost black background. Thank you!

To change the color theme in your editor: Go to Window | Preferences | General | Appearance | Color Theme. The list of available Eclipse color themes is displayed.
In File Associations, under File Types, select *. sql, then below select Add... find SQL Editor, Ok, and then select the SQL Editor newly added to the Associated Editors list, and then hit the Default button. It now appears as SQL Editor (default).
Eclipse SQL Explorer is a thin SQL client that allows you to query and browse any JDBC compliant database. It supports plugins with specialized functionality for individual databases (Oracle, DB2 and MySQL) and can be extended to include specialized support for other databases.
If you are looking for the place to change the Text Editor color settings, go to Preferences->General->Editors->Text Editors, select "Foreground color" in "Appearance color options", uncheck "System Default", click on the color and choose the color you want.
If you want to change the SQL Editor color settings, go to Preferences->Data Management->SQL Development->SQL Editor->Syntax Coloring.
Edit: You need to change the "Others" item in SQL Editor's syntax coloring. It's working on my Mac, anyway. First uncheck "Default foreground color" and then choose the color you want.
Edit: For those not seeing the change, after selecting "Apply and Close", you must Restart your workspace to see the changes. File -> Restart
