"Parsers" settings

For highlight of lexical terms in various programming languages Visual Comparer use such concept as Parser. Since version 1.0 lexical parsers are realized as external plug-in modules. Each module can contain a collection of parsers and is submitted as a file with extension prs. Plug-in modules are placed in the catalogue /parsers.

Each parser represents a collection of tokens. The token determines some lexical term and has visual styles - color, bold, italic and underline. You can change visual styles of any token. For this purpose you need to choose a parser from the list of parsers available, specify a required token and then specify desirable color using the combobox of color or select appropriate visual style.

For restoration of visual styles as before use Default and Default All buttons. First of them restores properties by default for current token in the list of tokens, and the second - restores properties of all tokens for current parser in the parsers list.

Note: Plug-in modules from UNICODE and ANSI versions of Visual Comparer do not match each other! Be attentive at installation of new modules.
