OT console based editor that can do php syntax highlighting
Hello Everyone, I'm guessing this is off-topic so thank you in advance if you can offer any help. I currently SSH into a couple of freebsd machine I have dotted about which run some console and web based php code. This is all fine and dandy but when it comes to remote support I struggle reading plain code when the file gets over a certain size and find a little syntax highlighting helps a lot. So can anyone recommend an editor that can do this ? I did try vim some time ago but being a novice in these areas I couldn't get the syntax file to load and help on the web confusing or indecipherable.

Re: OT console based editor that can do php syntax highlighting
Nano supports syntax highlighting. it is off by default but can easily be turned on. I think that you actually have to find the config file to make it handle PHP though but that can be found pretty easily on the web -Sean -- From: Simon Griffiths simon.griffi...@tenenbaum.co.uk Sent: Saturday, February 14, 2009 7:27 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: OT console based editor that can do php syntax highlighting Hello Everyone, I'm guessing this is off-topic so thank you in advance if you can offer any help.

RE: OT console based editor that can do php syntax highlighting
Thanks for the tip Sean. It was mentioned that I could use joe and part of the /usr/ports/editors/joe build there is jpico which emulates the shortcuts im so used to in pico and nano. I think joe works great for me. Cheers, Si.

Joe's own editor (joe) now supports syntax highlightin, as well as VI improved (vim). The editor of the Midnight Commander (mcedit) is my individual program of choice, allthough I needed to modify the syntax files to fit my imaginations, just as I created new ones. :-) -- Polytropon From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
