Re: Perl5.10 and BBEdit: Syntax Coloring and Syntax Checking, How?

in reply to Perl5.10 and BBEdit: Syntax Coloring and Syntax Checking, How?

ikegami is on the right track above. Open up the BBEdit application bundle (right-click the icon in Finder and select "Show Package Contents") then navigate to Contents/Resources. You'll find a file called "Perl Keywords.txt" there. Make a backup of it if you like, then open it up and add keywords you'd like highlighted. I added the following for Perl 5.10.1:

say
UNITCHECK
state
given
when
default
[download]

Not sure where operators like // are, but this should help.
