try it! try it! try it! :-)"

I want to know when my thoughts will be syntax highlighted. Think of the errors I could prevent.

Also added another three modes.

Apache httpd.conf highlighting
OpenSSL sshd_config highlighting
PHP php.ini highlighting

next will probably be BIND's named.conf highlighting...

  Is this website so dead that I have to read a news telling that a new syntax highlighting file appeared?
  
  I *LOVE* BSD and it's kinda sad to read things like this :(

    what is even more sad is that you are reading it.... so it can't be that bad ;-)
    
    Just because you might not like highlighting modes does not mean that others do not...

    he does have a point that this isn't really openbsd-related. Highlighting for pf.conf is, but dhcpd.conf isn't really openbsd-specific, is it?

    I'm reading this because I LOVE BSD.. but highlighting dhcp.conf is not really what I want to read in OPENBSD-Journal

    I *LOVE* OpenBSD as well, and i'm sure everybody else that comes to openbsd journal does as well, ... but isn't it nice to find a few things along the way that make life easier?
    
    You complain that you do not want to see this... but what about the 800+ visitors refered from deadly.org since Aug. 9th that did want to see it or were at least some-what interested...?

    Well then, just skip over the article, stop whining, and write something worth inclusion in OpenBSD or on this site. I found it interesting, even though I don't yet use JED. And I love this site as well.

    **Shane gives OBSD Fan a pat on the back** :)

I suppose this could be carried further to highlight desired lines in log files that you could load into JED, but does anyone know of a filter type program that could read the same conf files and display the highlighted text as a log file was passing by? It makes me wonder...
