Re: Extend syntax highlighting for a certain language
Refering to the above post I am trying to figure out a way to fold on a #if( to #end by adding lines to one of the above files.
Has anyone tried this?
Thank you for your support.

to one of the above files.
That’s not very specific, even when I go back and re-skim the discussion from 2.5 years ago.edit: Oh, I realized you meant thestylers.xmlandlang.xmlfrom your subject line, not some random files mentioned years ago; the rest of my post (below) still applies.If you are using a built-in language, you cannot “add folding” in any meaningful way (update: if there’s already a list of folding keywords for your language in the Style Configurator, then either adding your terms to the list would work; but I don’t remember there being any built-in languages that list their folding-keywords in the style configurator). To get different folding than the native language-processor’s folding, you would have to manually create a new UDL that incorporates some of the features of that language, and then use your UDL instead of the built-in language for highlighting and folding your source code.
If you are using a UDL already, then just add the #if/#end keywords to the folding pairs (probably folding-in-code2 style, or maybe folding-in-comment style, depending on if there’s more meaning to the # prefix or not).
But without more details about your specific situation, these vague statements are the best I can do.
