syntax-highlighting

I am trying to get Vim to syntax highlight any file that ends with extension .Rtex in the following way: All top level text is highlighted as TeX Exception: any text enclosed in \begin{python}...\end{python} is highlighted as Python I am able to achieve each of these criteria individually, but unable to achieve both simultaneously.

I'm looking for a RichTextBox with syntax highlighting! Sounds easy but I'm searching since months and didn't find that what I need. First I started to do it by myself... No good idea...

The range might be wordboundaries or anything; this definitely improves performance.

I know that there are bunch of implementations out there but I would like to learn about regular expressions and how syntax highlighting works. How does syntax highlighting work and what are some good references for developing one? Does the syntax highlighter scan each character as it is typed or does it scan the document/text area as a whole after each character is typed? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. PS: I was planning

For me Bracket Highlighter plugin is not coloring and highlighting brackets but just underlining them in white. Here is a snapshot: Anyone knows of a solution? AGS Edit your ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 2/Packages/BracketHighlighter/bh_core.sublime-settings And set "style" to "highlight" for each bracket type you want highlighted. Here is an example for curly brackets. // User defined region styles "curly": { "icon": "curly_bracket", "color": "entity.name.class", "style": "highlight" } lawlist I have modified my example based upon the comments of AGS - it now includes a couple of

I wonder if someone managed to enable the Liquid templating engine syntax highlighting in WebStorm IDE , I work a lot on Shopify stores and really like using Webstorm for that purpose. Did anyone managed to get this working? I found some resources regarding this issue on JetBrain's forum though it didn't quite got me anywhere, there is one dude who suggested using ' tmBundle ' and that might work if you do some dark magic. The thread is: RUBY-7210 and the official plugin request: JetBrain's plugins: Liquid Templating language request Ilia luk I've found out that Twig have a very similar syntax
