[clug] Syntax-highlighting source code editors

[Jason Stokes]

I use Scite: http://www.scintilla.org/SciTE.html.  Good text editor, easy to learn and configure, comes in Win32 and X-Windows versions, and has mode files for every language under the sun, including Html, Perl and Tcl.

For Object Pascal, you might try the Lazarus IDE for Free Pascal, but I've never used it myself other than downloading it and looking at it.

Subject: [clug] Syntax-highlighting source code editors

What source code editors do people use that do syntax-highlighting?

I need to be able to handle Borland Pascal (Delphi).

Would like PERL and HTML as well and be able to write a 'lua' or 'tcl'
syntax as well.

Do I have to go to 'Eclipse'?

Have never embraced (X)e-macs.
Not averse to it if it is *the* way to go.

And I haven't explored 'vim's ability in this area.
I did once download a vim extension for something... Just can't remember
things like I once could :-) I understand I may have to RTFM.
