Highlighting tags in TXT files
Submitted by srikrishnan on Saturday, 8 March, 2008 - 05:47
Hi All, I want to distinguish entities (for e.g. α,etc) and tags (
, etc) from normal text in my txt files. Is it possible to create such a thing as like in htm and xml formats? Please help me to achieve this? Regards, Srikrishnan

By default you can't really do this without changing some things.

For instance, for temporary wants, you could change the edit mode on your text file to html or xml.

For a permanent fix, you'll need to override the text edit mode.

Look in the help docs for writing your own edit modes.
