Highlighters in D programming

Post by Kramerica »

Does anyone know how I can get Textpad to support the D programming language and have it use highlighters for keywords, strings, etc...?

There is one Syntax Definition File for "D" on our Add-ons page:

A more general answer: Use syntax definition files.

You can either use any of the syntax definition files that come with TextPad, download others or create your own. Look up "syntax" in TextPad's help.

A word of warning: Last time I knew, TextPad didn't support two of D's features: nested comments and WYSIWYG strings. But I haven't tested TextPad 5 extensively, so don't know if this has changed.
