Hi Andrea,

No, it does not exist. Feel free to write one, it would be quite useful!

I've used nedit for years with it's syntax highlighting and added my own file type definitions for CFX-4 and CFX-5 command files (.fc and .ccl). You're best off learning from the other definitions (like C++ and Fortran) and then creating syntax rules for keywords and commands based on how they appear in the file (i.e. commands are followed by a ':' an keywords are followed by an '='). You can copy the rules for text and numeric constants also from these other syntax rules.

nedit is available on the internet free for most unix workstations. There's a semi-port for Windows but you have to run an X emulator and I've found it's more trouble than it's worth.

I think the Windows software EditPadPro will do something similar, although you have to buy the commercial version. The free lite version doesn't do syntax highlighting.
