IDE Editor colour rules

Hi everyone,

Besides C code, we use the IDE editor to write other kind of code(to program a propietary chip). Does anybody know if it is possible to add new rules to the IDE editor in order to colour code? We would like to colour some words of this new code but don`t know how to manage with it.

Thanks in advance,

Luis

    Version 5.0, of the IDE, is based upon Eclipse 3.0.x. Previous versions upon 2.1.x. So.... Altera's not likely to provide documentation along the lines of what you're asking for, as it already exists for Eclipse. What I've found, is that buying yourself a good book on Eclipse is better than wading through all of the web-based information. I'd recommend "Eclipse in Action", though I think just about any book on Eclipse would help.
