Color Editor is a syntax color highlighting editor for Eclipse. Color Editor uses JEdit’s syntax highlighting mode files to support over 100 file formats. This version has been patched to use the latests Jedit edit modes and support even more new and updated file formats.

Getting started

Once installed, the Color Editor becomes the default editor for all supported file types. You can control it by selecting a file in Package Explorer view, or in the Navigator view, right-click on it and select "Open With".
Colors can be selected in the Coloring Editor -> Colors preference section, in the Windows -> Preferences. It is also possible to define how tabs are handled.
File associations (selecting which editor opens each file type) can be controled in the General -> Editors -> File Associations preference section.

Requirements and limitations

• This plugin will run with any distribution of EasyEclipse.
