A collection of extra syntax files for CodeRunner.

#CodeRunner-Syntax-Files

##About This repo is a collection of extra syntax files for CodeRunner. CodeRunner is an app for Mac OS X. CodeRunner itself is limited on the number of languages it has syntax highlighting for.

##Install First of all, clone this repo somewhere via the terminal.

git clone [email protected]:lukevers/CodeRunner-Syntax-Files.git

Now, there are two things you have to do. First, place the plist syntax files into the Syntax folder where CodeRunner keeps them. That can be located here:

/Applications/CodeRunner.app/Contents/Resources/Syntax

Next, you need to edit the Syntax.plist file that tells CodeRunner what plist files to use. That can be located here:

/Applications/CodeRunner.app/Contents/Resources/Syntax.plist

If you're editing Syntax.plist with Xcode or another plist editor, just add a new String to the Dictionary. If you're not using a plist editor then just simply add these two lines. For example, pretend we're adding Go as a language:

<key>Go</key>
<string>go.plist</string>

The key is the name that you'll see in CodeRunner under Syntax Mode under Languages in preferences. The string is the location and name of the plist file within the Syntax folder where the plist files are kept.

When editing/replacing any of the files, you may have to authenticate yourself. If it still does not work, copy the file to a new location, edit it, and then copy the file back to the original location.
