[mapserver-users] Re: MapServer Keywords Codeless Language Module for BBEdit TextWrangler etc

[Ben Madin]

I've learnt a bit more, and this might just work smoother. The missing feature(!) is being able to fold LAYER definitions, so that you could scroll through large mapfiles quickly. I think it can be done, but the process eludes me for now.

It seems to be working OK in BBEdit, although I don't think I really understand some of the syntactic opportunities or differences, such as between a keyword and a predefined name (I wanted the keywords that needed an END tag to shade a different colour to the ones that don't...) and I haven't worked out the operator colouring, but I don't use many.
