Hi all,

Is there a possibility to change the syntax highlighting for "strings, 'characters', decimals, octals and hex numbers within the IDDE?? That's one thing I miss in this great product. If no, will this be implemented in the next version of the IDDE??

Thanks in advance,

Max Veen
The Netherlands

I stopped using the IDDE and use VIM instead.  Vim is nicer and it is straight forward to use shell escape to compile.

You have a Win32-based VIM? Are you using the cygwin one or a standalone? And where did ya get it? =)

Thanks buddy, I love VI. I have a burnt-in habit of pressing escape-colon-w to save when even using notepad =P

Here are some links to help you use "exuberant ctags" with vim.

Ctags helps you to navigate your code.  It can turn vim into a source code browser.  It understands several languages (C++, Python, Fortran, etc), and can be extended to other languages too.  It works with several editors, not just vim.

Where ctags lives.
http://ctags.sourceforge.net

The "Tag List" plugin provides an overview of the structure of source code files and allows you to efficiently browse through source code files in different programming languages. http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=273

Taglist Vim Plugin Screenshots http://www.geocities.com/yegappan/taglist/screenshots.html

Another script using ctags for vim http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=397

On a related note, I still think there should be an official designated newsgroup to post utilities that are written for, or work with, Digital Mars products.

Hope this helps...
