Chose file type from a combobox

Post by Bern »

ConText allows you to select the file type through a combo box. This will change syntax highlighting depending on the selected file type.

It's useful if for instance, you copy the source code from another application and want to use syntax highlighting without having to save the file with the right extension...

Under View - Document Properties/Contextmenu - Properties/Alt-Return, choose the syntax tab and select whatever syntax file you want to have applied.

OK, but would be nice to have a comboBox directly in the toolbar.
