How can I use in other theme？

The rules are the same regardless of the theme you're using; you just need to change the name of the file that you create to make it apply to a different theme.

If you're using ST4. pick UI: Customize Theme and the file on the right is where you would put the rules. If you're using ST3 you can install PackageDev and use it's PackageDev: Edit Current Theme command. Alternately, the name of the file you want to create in your User package can be found by using Preferences > Settings and using the name of the file mentioned theme setting.

great works!
