Editor Options

Syntax tab

    Syntax highlighting allows you to format your display of C/C++ source code using different fonts, colors, and backgrounds. Note that the wxDev-C++/Dev-C++ editor only knows C/C++ syntax highlighting and probably won't work for other programming languages. The Type listbox allows you to configure each programming language class (comments, assembler code, numbers, reserved words, etc.) The Enabled file extensions text box specifies which file extensions apply to these definitions. The highlighted code at the bottom of the tab shows a preview of how C/C++ source code will be displayed with the current settings.
