I spend some time editing configurations in .htaccess files across several projects in Eclipse. How would I go about telling Eclipse to auto color this file in a similar fashion as shell scripts or HTML?
One thing that would work for sure is write your own plugin for .htaccess files. But if you've never done that before it will take a bit of time to get into. There are plenty of tutorials available online, though. See here for an example.
I found using the "Properties File Editor" seems to give a decent color output. It's actually for Java files, so it comes with a stock Eclipse.
In Preferences, "General" -> "Content Types" -> "Text" -> "Java Properties File" click "Add..." button, enter ".htaccess", click "OK".
You could use the ColorEditor from Gstaff, in order to define your own syntax coloring.
