Suggestion: Unlimited Highlights I'm trying to re-create the old Allaire Homesite 4 HTML coloring scheme based not on syntax (plain text, tags, attributes etc.) but rather on tag categories (text formatting tags, table tags, form tags, links, images etc.). Choosing different colors for the tags of different purposes makes HTML code look much more structured and easy to navigate.
Unfortunately the text coloring possibilities EmEditor offers are too limited for that task, especially if a HTML code being colored contains also JavaScript and CSS definitions. This can be solved really easy without considerable UI redesign: just include the ability to add unlimited number of Highlights (more than 10 by default) in the 'Specify Part' list found on the 'Display' tab in the 'Properties for Current Configuration' dialog box. The 'Highlight Word' list on the 'Highlight (1)' tab must be changed accordingly. In macro engine a new array or a function should be introduced, somethig like eeColorHighlight[n], which will extend the functionality of the existing constants eeColorHighlight1, ..., eeColorHighlight10. Thanks for your attention. |
