Syntax Highlighting: variables and methods vs classnames

Post by Bugmaster »

Hi all,

Sorry, I searched the forums, but could not find a solution. I am new to TextPad; I am trying to switch to it from emacs, because their annoying UI is really starting to tick me off.

My question is: how do I set up syntax highlighting so that it differentiates between classnames and other identifiers ? I'd like to enter some sort of a rule that says, "every word that is not a keyword and begins with a capital letter belongs in the Keyword 3 category, but every word that is not a keyword and begins with a lowercase letter belongs in the Keyword 4 category", but I'm not sure how to do this in Textpad.

Thanks for your help...
