RE: SNL syntax highlight for text editors

["Andrew C. Starritt" <Andrew.Starritt@synchrotron.org.au>]

Hi all,

   I have some syntax high-highlighting files for kwrite/kate (attached).

There are three files, covering SNL,  database files (template, substitution and dbd files) and

for IOC shell scripts.

 

  These were based on existing high-light syntax files, for example the SNL

syntax file is based on the C syntax file with a few new key words.

 

   On CentOS 6, this live in   /usr/share/kde4/apps/katepart/syntax/

 

Regards

Hi Tomas,
I have a set of vim syntax files that were originally created by Steve Lewis that you
might find useful.   They include syntax coloring for db files, request files, archive files, and SNL.
See the attached files which would be installed to the following paths:
~/.vim/filetype.vim
~/.vim/syntax/epics*.vim

Regards,
- Bruce

Thanks Florian. That was swift. It will help me and my colleague to slip into SNL.

Syntax highlight for db? ... very interesting idea. Lets ask tech-talkers directly.

Regards,
Tomas

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
