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.

SciTE has just this, and I find it extremelly usefull.

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
