[jEdit-Syntax-users] Syntax highlighting questions

[P. J. R. <sp...@sa...>]

Hello!  I'm working on developing a Java-based IDE for the A-Prolog 
language (don't worry, you've probably never heard of it), and the jEdit 
Syntax package seems as though it would work wonderfully.  I've looked 
through a lot of the documentation in the source code, but I've still 
got a few questions.

First, is there any documentation available on how to go about creating 
a token marker file for a language?  Or should I just take one of the 
pre-existing ones and editing for me needs?

Second, what's the easiest way to change what language a JEditTextArea 
object is set to highlight?  I would've thought it would have a member 
function to do that, but I don't see anything like that obviously 
labelled...

That's all for now.  Thanks in advance!
