found: how to add another extension to a syntax file??

Post by DerellLicht1 »

I want to associate .cxx extension with cpp highlighter...

Nevermind, I found it... edit _list.ver to include the extension under the relevant highlighter,
restart TextEd, say "yes" when asked if they should use the highlighter... done!!

Okaaay... And why is it preferable to Environment > Add-ons > Highlighters > %lang% > File extensions > [ Add ] ? :?

heh... because I couldn't find that option!!
That was actually what I was looking for when I initially posted this,
but then I went looking around the config files and found a hack that worked...
But definitely your option is preferable!!
Thank ye!

I'll add this note to my rjtexted.tips.txt file for future reference...
