Title: Some extensions to the highlighter abilities - testers needed
Post by: 280Z28 on December 25, 2005, 06:18:01 AM
I extended the functionality of the syntax highlighter somewhat. Is anyone interested in testing this for me before I submit it as a request to patch the trunk?

It allows you to switch the highlighting language of the current editor via the menu or toolbar.

Here you go. Patch on 1587 in the codeblocks/src directory.

This seems to work pretty solidly. I hope it gets added; it sure is handy.

I can't figure out why there's a gap in one toolbar but not in the other. See the circles in my diagram. :)

Could you implement as a "Language" root menu?
I'm very used to SciTE :P
