Change large output background color in ReverseColor stylesheet

Question

I like using the ReverseColor stylesheet in Mathematica as I find it easier on the eyes when staring at at notebook for long periods of time.

However, the one bugbear I have is that some of the default choices for colors mean that it is sometimes difficult to read text. Most notably, when the output of a computation is large the grey text on light blue background is just terrible - see attached screenshot.

Does anyone know what to edit in the stylesheet to fix this (and how to access it?) Otherwise, is there a dark/reverse color stylesheet around that is better to use?

Thanks in advance.

You can create a ReverseColor.nb in \$UserBaseDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/Stylesheets, customize it and point it to ReverseColor.nb from $InstallationDirectory.

$path = FileNameJoin[{$UserBaseDirectory, "SystemFiles", "FrontEnd", 
   "StyleSheets", "ReverseColor.nb"}]

If[
  FileExistsQ @ $path
, SystemOpen @ $path (*if it exists edit it manually*)
, If[
    Not @ DirectoryQ @ #
  , CreateDirectory[#, CreateIntermediateDirectories -> True]
  ] & @ DirectoryName @ $path
; Export[
$path
  , Notebook[{
      Cell[
     StyleData[
      StyleDefinitions -> 
       FrontEnd`FileName[{$InstallationDirectory, "SystemFiles", 
         "FrontEnd", "StyleSheets"}, "ReverseColor.nb"]]],
    Cell[StyleData["OutputSizeLimit"], Background -> Black]
    }
   ]
  ]
