Bit confused paul. I use
context as it is with just the highlighter file to mimic the afl editor
colours and having context the default editor for afl
files.
What is the use of
examdiff?

I use
Context together with ExamDiff, ExamDiff is a freeware Visual "Unix Diff"
tool, it allows you to configure context as the editor for AFL files. You can
download it from <A

I however
havent been able to configure ExamDiff to load context with the correct file.
If anybody got it working, can you let me know.

>Well,
I was just getting used to NoteTab Light as my editor, mainly
becauseof its file-compare utility. (It is also free, does regular
expressionsearches even across files; but it did not appear to be able
to do AFL colorcoding and is more for HTML than any other language I
think)And then Dave was kind enough to enable ConTEXT to do the
color coding...soI am trying that out. (It's also free, claims to do
the regular expressionsearches, but, so far I haven't seen a
file-compare utility)And now dingo enables AFL color coding for
TextPad...I used it a couple ofyears ago and liked it a lot, but it
was not free ($27 I believe) and when Iupgraded computers and asked to
move my license, they found no record of mypurchase...So what
editor do you all like and why?And will it
do: file comparing
regular-expression search/replace across files AFL
color coding?thanks-johnSend
