Erlang syntax highlighting support

Anonymous — Thu, 05 Apr 2007 08:53:52 -0000

Hi,

it would be nice if ever syn supported the Erlang syntax (http://erlang.org), as this language has a continuously growing user base and no real IDE on Windows.

Best regards,

Use system setting as default date format

Anonymous — Sat, 21 Oct 2006 02:43:51 -0000

It would be good if it took the system preference for
date format as the default. The default date format
should be whatever has been set in the regional
settings control panel, rather than the hardcoded (I
assume?) mm/dd/yy American style.

skin support

with some minimalistic skin it will be perfect for
flash and install disks (e.g. as default editor for
totalcmd)

Show (ASCII) code of current character

It will be very useful to see on the Status bar the
ASCII code of current character from the text.

I worked with editor that can do RECTANGULAR:

copy cut paste and delete.

It will be nice if someone will know how to implement
it.

Character encodings (UTF-8)

Daniel Kraft — Sun, 11 Sep 2005 07:57:25 -0000

Especially when editing XML it is often usful to use a
character encoding like UTF-8. As far as I know it
isn't possible to use Syn for editing files in specila
character encodings - it would be of great use if at
least UTF-8 was possible.

support of page break characters

Anonymous — Mon, 20 Jun 2005 13:13:50 -0000

Page break characters should be supported in the
printed document (for example in the txt files of the IETF
like http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-gurbani-
sipping-connection-guidelines-01.txt). Right now, the
formated pages are not separated.

Code Folding

Anonymous — Sat, 18 Jun 2005 22:34:18 -0000

How about supporting Code folding in syn text editor?
It would help developer a great deal to be able to
collapse code and expand code by bracket.

Such as if (condition) { } else { }, because in complex
code with lots of blocks of code, sometimes it's hard
to see which block belongs to which condition.

If there is code folding, we can easily collapse the
code we don't want to see and just see the one that
matters.

Expand/Minimize code blocks

It'd be useful to be able to minimize/expand blocks of
code.
