Suggestion
It would be great to have syntax highlighting in Lister:
Ghisler's reply
Lister would have to read the entire file from the beginning for correct syntax highlighting. Why? Immagine the situation where the file starts with a "start comment" sign. Then the entire file up to the next "end comment" sign would be a comment! That's why reading only a small part of the file (as lister currently does) wouldn't be sufficient.

Lister plugins
There are several Lister plugins that do the job with highlighting, and do it perfectly, so this feature is not so needed:
- SynPlus
- SynPlus color scheme editor
- Syn (good)
- SynUs (outdated - use SynPlus instead)
- Highlight(Unofficial plugin)
- SyntaxColorizer (outdated)
