Re: SNL syntax highlight for text editors

[Florian Feldbauer <florian@ep1.ruhr-uni-bochum.de>]

Hey,

nice work!
I just created a syntax file for vim.
In principal I just extended the cpp syntax highlighting from vim...

Either copy the files to
  ~/.vim/ftdetect/snl_filetype.vim
  ~/.vim/syntax/snl.vim
ot (for system-wide use) to
  $VIM/vimfiles/ftdetect/snl_filetype.vim
  $VIM/vimfiles/syntax/snl.vim

Regards,
Florian

BTW: Are there syntax highlighting for db or protocol files? (Preferable for vim)

Hi

Besides CSS's SNL editor, I didn't find any other hints about SNL syntax highlight for text editors or Integrated Development Environments.

I made a quick patch for Midnight Commander text editor -- its CXX syntax highlight definition file extended to deal with SNL keywords. However, I'm only basic with SNL, so it covers only apparent SNL features.

Could somebody share his/her solution for his/her favourite text editor ?
Any of Linux ones or preferably VIM/VI would be great.

Thanks,
Tomas
