XML Syntax Highlighting for plist files (Property List)

#1

Hej-hej, just edited a OS X plist-file and found, that it lacks a good highlighting. the header is ok, but after that (look at the screenshot above) it is black on white :frowning:

I tried other highlighters from the menu at random, but none suceeded by chance.

As this is theoretically a valid xml-format from Apple:

[code]<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

[/code]

I hope this is something that can be fixed in general or is a special PropertyListHighlighter needed, or maybe one available somewhere I did not find by myself?

Cheers,
Ulf

I suspect that it’s an issue with the colour scheme you are using. Try the default Monokai; the tags should be colored. If this is the case, you will need to either edit your scheme to colour the appropriate scopes or use another colour scheme.

Hope this helps,
Alex
