      I have many files I need to edit all really using COBOL Syntax and all having many disparate extensions.
      I want the COBOL Syntax to be my default highlighting syntax. Can I do that?

        If your files have like 100 different extensions, this is obviously not a great option, and you’d probably want to use a scripting solution like NppExec or PythonScript.
