Syntax highlighting
Posted: 22 May 2013 17:52
Just a (probably foolish) question: does anyone here (a) use the Boxer text editor, (b) have taught it to recognise xys syntax and (c) would be prepared to post the relevant line from their syntax.ini so I can make use of all your hard work? 
Failing that, does anyone have xys syntax highlighting rules for any other PFEs that I might be able to hack into an importable format?
Just as a sort of side-issue: I'm trying to get to grips with xys scripting by throwing myself into the deep end: I've found a (complex!) script that doesn't do exactly what I need but I'm hoping I can make it work for me. Always assuming I achieve anything at all with it (I'm not yet at the stage when all my "too complicated" lights start flashing, but it could happen anytime!) is there a protocol for crediting original authors if I post my hack? Or should I just not post anything that's not entirely original code?
