Is there a working lister plugin with syntax highlighting?

ricobautsch · Post by *ricobautsch » 2010-01-27, 22:48 UTC

I'm using Synus for a long time, which for me works very well and fast viewing .pas, .sql, .bat.

Some time ago, i started programming with C#, but Synus does not start when viewing .cs files.

I also tryed SciLister and Synplus.
Both crashed TotalCommander when started.

I can not find any plugin, which is actual supported, all i can find is very old, and apparently not developed anymore.

Is there any Plugin, which you can recommend?

Thanx
Rico

As to me, I use SyntaxColorizer. I don't know about C#, but the C++ it highlights good.

Also you haven't mentioned Highlight. I haven't tested it either.

Strange...I don't remember SciLister ever crashing. Maybe there's something with the file?
Anyway, you can try also GSA Lister.

SciLister hasn't been updated to work with SciTE version 1.79 and up. Apparently something has been changed which causes it to crash.

ricobautsch,

I also tryed SciLister and Synplus.
Both crashed TotalCommander when started.

Strange, SynPlus v2.7.3 works quite fine here.

@ochomurka
Thx for your suggestions.
SyntaxColorizer is no option for me, since it only supports C++.
Highlight works with some visual problems, it does'nt display german Umlauts and also displays some strangs chars in the first 2 characters.

@Hacker
SynPlus v2.7.3 does'nt work for me. I cannot install.
If i want to install in configuration of TC, then TC crashes with error "TotalCommander 32bit funktioniert nicht mehr" (TotalCommander does'nt work anymore).

I know it's a lot of reading but did you search for an answer here?

Last posts from this thread contain solution for "SynPlus crashing" under Win7. Maybe it can work for you?

@fenix_productions

thank you, your link was the helpful information, that old software like SynPlus is not Vista/7 compatible.
I installed it in a writable directory for normal user, and it works.

There are some problems, for example black font on black background in dialogs, but i can editing the ini's manually, so i can live with it.

I've now choosen SynPlus, since it works well and has a really large set of highlighter-definitions.

thank you all for your help
