TextWrangler/BBEdit Forth syntax highlighter available

[Ian Osgood]

I'm probably the only person on the planet who uses TextWrangler to
edit Forth code, but in case there are others who are annoyed at
constantly having to turn off Fortran syntax coloring, I've created a
"codeless language module" for the ANS Forth vocabularies:

http://www.quirkster.com/forth/ForthCodelessLanguageModule.plist

It highlights the ANS Forth wordsets as keywords, allows all
characters in symbols, handles ( ) and \ comments, and highlights
strings between double quotes.

Install it in ~/Library/Application Support/TextWrangler/Language
Modules/ before launching TextWrangler (substitute "BBEdit" for
"TextWrangler" in the path if you use that editor instead).

Thanks! I use BBedit, so this will come in handy.
