1. Syntax hilighting editors
Hello list.
I am looking for some (as many as i can get) syntax hilighting editors.
I plan to try them all out, see if I like any better than what I am
currently using (Code-Genie) and put them onto a cd. (I am triing to get
enouph stuff to completly fill a cd.) I am hoping for an editor that is
expandable (the ability to create syntax files for it) and most of all,
free.
Thanks for any responses!

I use Textpad. This topic comes up several times per year, maybe the email
archives would be of some help to you?

I use ConTEXT, which has a facility to set up syntax files. There is
even one for Eu in the archive.
Bingo v4.0 is good too, and more versatile. Its main drawback, though,
is that it is DOS only.
Both are free.

Hi Robert,
I know you're looking specifically for *free* syntax highlighting
editors... and also there is no accounting for taste.... and
programmer's editors are a very personal thing and all... but the best
syntax highlighting editor I have ever used ... fully programmable -
macro language very similar to Euphoria.... is TSEPro from
www.semware.com .
There are test drive versions available.
I've used TSE since first release in the early 90's. Incredible
editor. Can call DLLs etc. doesn't support callbacks though... Full
undo/redo even beyond 'save'. Interface is hybrid GUI and console
mode... although not a console-mode program... It's a rare gem in a
world full of too many rocks.
Best wishes,
Ross

Don't worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any good, you'll
have to ram them down people's throats.

That folding sounds like it would be a great utility... Anybody have real
world experience and can comment on its usability?

I keep thinking that its got to be a major advance. You can fold
block comments, #ifdefs, and {} blocks. Great for hiding false
#ifdef's and checking block termination.
The automatic indenting helps prettify the code, as well as catching
errors.
Unfortunately, SciTe also does the one thing that I cannot
accept from an editor-- popping up a search dialog over my text.

I used a couple of mainframe editors (PanValet and ICCF) that had this
feature and I remember liking it. But then we were using 24x80 char
terminals so anything that would gain screen real-estate was useful.

Has anyone mentioned Vim yet?
I made syntax files for vim that include templates, syntax highlighting, and
auto indenting for the Euphoria syntax.
