I tried but then it wont spell check for some reason though it does mark the text as I want. I don't understand that because the new document class has the spell checks all selected they are also checked as the default document class. When I change it back to TEXT=1 the spell check works again and t...

I didn't add keywords to this file. I simply changed this part only in the "TEXT=1" syntax file thinking that would be enough to mark some color change but it didn't work. BracketChars = [] CommentStart = == CommentEnd = == CommentStartAlt = -- CommentEndAlt = -- I also changed the colors ...

It's rocket science to some of us starting out. This is something I'd like to do but I don't know what the process is of setting it up. I like how you changed the text color in certain places to mark things. Most of all I want it to stay so when I reopen the file it's still marked. Any help on how t...

This is just what I am looking to do. Is there some way to mark text and save it so the marks stay for later use? Please use simple terms as I don't know how to write macros and such. Any help would really be appreciated.
