Updated Syntax Highlighting for UltraEdit
[1/5] from: gchillemi::aliceposta::it at: 8-Dec-2007 23:48
Hello,
I have just updated the wordfile for Rebol 2.7.5 and View. It is nice to
have 8 color Syntax Highlighting ! :-)
There are still 2 issues to resolve but I need the UltraEdit Developer:
1) String stored between {} are not recognized and if you have a {"} string
the source after it is considered as a string.
2) I have asked a way to recognize function names to list them separately in
the function window.
If you need the wordfile please mail me privately and I'll send it to you
before the 2 problems are solved and the wordfile is published.

Bummer! There really ought to be a rebol editor written in and
customizable with rebol.... that would be most appealing.

Which special functions do you require for this editor to be integrated with
rebol and written in rebol ?
However, if the author of ultra edit implements the recognition of fuction
names when "does" or "func" are found it would be a great thing. I would
like a lot to have my function listed in a separate list ad automatically
collapsable.

Oh, I don't know that I can answer in a paragraph, a full-fledged editor
would be a **bbiigg** job! If it happened, I assume that
that View would be the environment and I only use 'core, but that
would give me an excuse.....
It would be so much nicer to use rebol to customize an IDE than
elisp or vimscript.

As text handling is now, a seperate string and face is required for every change in text
formatting (AFAIK) - even bold and italics, never mind different fonts and colours.
That would be the biggest hurdle I think. (And I'm sure someone's jumped it after a
fashion.) But I suspect waiting until REBOL 3 is the current sensible approach for coding
a REBOL editor.
