Here you have it, the Galaxy syntax highlighter. Nothing special, just syntax highlighting and some other minor features. Just a placeholder while you guys wait for Moonlite to come out ;)

Anyways, the only thing it requires is the .Net framework 3.5.
How to use:
  1. Download the .zip;
  2. Extract it;
  3. Run "gxsh.exe";
  4. Done!

Enjoy :)

EDIT: Language file developer is now Lyerae!

It works for me, so you may not have it. What OS version are you running?

Eh, not really. It's stopped highlighting keywords I've put in it.
If you make this take the language definition from an .xml (or other format), I'll just work on that instead. :D

It already does :) It's just an embedded resource inside the .dll.
I can make it a file instead of a resource, so you can edit it. :)

Uploaded new version for you, Lyerae. If you want examples of how *.lang files are built, download my Storm framework and look in the Storm.TextEditor project. There are multiple languages in the Languages folder. (You'll need Visual C# or Visual Studio) Happy language developing :)

Cool. I'll get to that as soon as my wireless starts working on my laptop. :p

Edit: AH these .lang files are weird. Not unmanageable though. :p
You should try making some sort of "Editor" to create and edit these files. :D

This should have everything I have so far.

I have a few questions though:
1. Is it possible to create new "Pattern (Group)", without it crashing? I had tried to, to separate the keywords to make the highlighting better, but when I tried it, it crashed. :/
2. Can the "ForeColor" element hold colorcodes?

1. It is very possible to create more PatternGroups, how did you do it?
2. Yeah, it can, but the format is very strict: "R, G, B", must have spaces, MUST have 3 values.

Also, you can always add more styles :) You don't have to make it look like it does now.
Also, although the current list does work, it is recommended that each keyword is on its own line.

1. I just copied one, and renamed it.
2. So, like #00 00 00?

And I'll add them all to a single line soon as I've got some spare time. :D

Edit: Also, does your XML parser ignore comments (<!-- comment -->)? (just makin' sure)

Alright.
