There is one way, you can implement it yourself :)

hi
I've just installed code::blocks and wanted to write the source code in c language but when I started to type the code I instantly realized that the syntax highlighting wasn't working. I checked the the syntax highlighting menu in the editor settings and there are no predefined modes of any kind. have I missed to install some plug-in or why isn't it working?

Freem:
What is your OS?
Which version of C::B are you using?
How did you install it? (compilation of sources, installation from official installer?)

@axmz:

What is the file extension; I believe Code::Blocks uses the file extension to determine Language.

OS: WinXP
C::B version: 10.05
I installed the official version I downloaded from this official site but I've kinda rushed the installation, so it's possible that I unintentionally overlooked some settings along the way...
File extension is *.c source file (if that's what your question regarded to)
