Hi Bruce - Excellent! Thanks for doing that. I hope my contribution is useful.
I see that same page has links for both vi and emacs syntax files. I'll check out the vi file against gvim and report how it works. A minor carp about that entry ... strictly speaking, syntax highlighting is not possible in vi. It requires vim. For most modern systems they are one and the same, but there may be exceptions. Some systems use tiny-vim as the default, which does not support syntax highlighting. -- Bill Gee On Tuesday, March 27, 2018 3:27:38 AM CDT Bruce Mutton via Therion wrote: > You might like to check and or edit what I have added here > https://therion.speleo.sk/wiki/contrib:externaleditors#katepart_kate_kwrite > > > > Bruce > > > > From: Therion <therion-boun...@speleo.sk> On Behalf Of Bill Gee via Therion > Sent: Tuesday, 27 March 2018 5:01 AM > To: therion@speleo.sk > Cc: Bill Gee <b...@campercaver.net> > Subject: Re: [Therion] Syntax highlighting for therion files (.th, .th2 and > .thconfig) > > > > Hello everyone - > > > > Xavier's effort inspired me to take a look at syntax highlighting > definitions for other editors.
