Create  language-foo plugin example
Comment 1 mcbofh 2005-10-13 12:18:45 UTC
At the present moment we are limited to support of a specific set of languages
in the ide/editor.

I know that Sun's SunStudio compiler suite now provides a variety of language
'bindings' (for want of a better term) -- if we could have documentation on how
to migrate those bindings, and (more importantly) how to create our own (eg for
c, c++, python, perl, ruby, lisp etc etc) then that would be a big win for the
community.

Specific targets of this RFE should include
-- syntax representation and recognition
-- code folding mechanisms
-- highlighting
-- annotations

Comment 2 Martin Entlicher 2005-10-13 14:04:35 UTC
Please submit this as a separate issue to editor. This issue is strictly about
debugging, we do not care about syntax highlighting, code folding and annotations.
