There’s also the scite module that uses SciTE’s lexers for syntax
highlighting. The builtin highlighters are limited to TeX/ConTeXt,
MetaPost, Lua and XML.
They are actually just lpeg lexers that we made for use in scite so no
scite installation is needed.
Which highlighter should extended when support for additional languages
is needed, the built-in one or the scite version?
probably easiest is the built in but if one wants to nest them then the
scite ones are aeasier (in a way the scite ones are like the built in
ones but they provide data structures that accomodate scite and as a
side effect i then added nexting)
for most languages the simple ones are good enough (no need to have real
parsers, just coloring keywords an dspecial symbols)
