Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: James Nicholl (jnicholl17) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: plain TeX edit mode Initial Comment: Syntax highlighting for plain TeX as described in the TeXbook by Knuth. I work with this file open, so it may never be totally complete, but I've got it to the point that it is useful. The vocabulary is very large and categorized very well. There are some things I would like to do still, including further refining the categorization, and implementing the detection of macros that are invalid in math mode. A modified version for pdfTeX will probably arise naturally over the course of my work. It needs further refinement, but what is there is very well done. I would like some feedback from the community if this is a worthwhile side project for me to pursue. I included the catalog entry, but I'm not sure if it works. In fact, I'm pretty sure it doesn't., at least not from within jEdit 4.3 pre16. I just cut and paste the catalog entry from another mode submission. I don't understand why it doesn't work, or how it's supposed to work... It works well if you rename it latex.xml then overwrite the existing edit mode. Advice on fixing this situation would be appreciated.

I see also that tex.xml is there, and has no file name glob either. So I can add plaintex as an additional mode, or I can replace the old tex.xml with plaintex.xml Does it make sense to keep the old tex.xml around when yours is probably much better? I will keep using the latex.xml regardless. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Alan Ezust (ezust) Date: 2009-06-29 16:10 Message: what do you suggest the file name glob/first name glob should be? If we currently have a mode for latex which uses the .tex extension, will we want to associate this mode with any filename extension? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: James Nicholl (jnicholl17) Date: 2009-05-04 20:50 Message: There is lengthy documentation for this highlighting package in the header of the xml file. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300588&aid=2787012&group_id=588 |
