better c syntax highlighting?
Submitted by on Wednesday, 18 August, 2004 - 22:12
Hello,
I just started to learn a bit C. Is there a mode file, plugin or something that would give me better C syntax highlighting in jEdit? I use jEdit everyday, mostly for html stuff, and I would like to use it for my C lessons too, but I find the default C highlighting a bit disapointing. For example, function names are not highlighted at all, although there is a setting for functions in the syntax highlighting options. I would love to have different syntax highlighting for function names and variable names, like in SubEthaEdit, if anybody knows this editor.
Sorry if this is a FAQ. I tried to use the search form to find an answer, but it doesn't use search strings shorter than 2 chars, so I can't search for something like "c mode".
Thanks, kimjim
