I know that composer uses a completly diferent aproach than the browser when it comes to showing html source, but the browser does this already and it shouldn't be that hard to do it in composer (although i did try looking at the source and find my way around it, but the only thing i found my way to was a headache, thus i guess it's not that easy).
That's false. **Viewing** a coloured source and **editing** a coloured source
keeping the colours in sync with a modified source are different tasks. And
the latter is clearly more difficult than the former.
I can understand that, i've been given it some thought and i've come to that conclusion too. It is a completly diferent issue. Have you had a look at Active State's komodo and how they do it? It is based on mozilla too and does sintax colouring for loads of programing languages. I don't know if "looking" at their source would be a legal problem though.
Please please please consider taking a look at implementing this feature.
Don't worry, a lot of people want this feature. But other things currently
have a much higher priority on my radar. We need to have a fully standalone
composer first, with working prefs, and a clean UI.
I've read about your efforts and want to wish you luck with your new company. 8-)
I think that composer has the potencial to become the best open source html editor out there and you are clearly the right person to make it so.
My thanks in advance and tremendous respect for everyone involved with mozilla.
