Puntuation Highlights.
Submitted by vapourmle on Monday, 1 January, 2007 - 23:28
Hi there,

I am Very picky about syntax highlighting... I love a good aesthetic, and, the more descriptive the highlighitng scheme the better in my opinion. What I would like - and I may be able to do this myself if I knew how! - IS to highlight punctuation marks when they are in the reserved context (by this I mean, outside of string literals). This highlights the fact that in code fragment that include lines like:

bike2.changeCadence(50);

The period, open and close parentheses and semicolon are an original part of the Java language. Right now the first colout that springs to mind, in context of the normal jEdit scheme, is dark blue. Possible?

jEdit has proven to be an environment that has grown on me. Since being off put slightly by the looks at first, I have kept returning for its rapid-rise response curve. I mean, after just a few tries, my edit sessions have gathered enourmous pace, which I can't say for any other editor. Please keep up the good work.
