Re: [edit+] Problemes with syntax highlighting

Some time around 08/27/2004 14:15:12, I think I heard progwr say:

Hello:
        I understand, and there's not much you can do about it, except change 
those comments and put a space after the first *.  The alternative, of course, 
is to set the comment string as a plain *, but then you run into your original 
problem; EditPlus will always highlight as a comment a line containing the 
comment string and ignore any other keywords set with that same string.  I 
guess this is by design, as the logic might be too complicated to have EditPlus 
treat as comments those lines containing the comment string -- except if they 
are defined as keywords too.  It would certainly slow down the highlighting 
engine.
