Syntax Highlighting of Files Based on File Extension

[mikeholler]

@xwang12, I know we talked about this before but I think slipped through the cracks. The ACE editor needs to highlight files based on their file extension. Is this going to be something you'll be able to do before the demo on Thursday? We promised that to Demond last demo.

I will try but I will do the "save file alert when users try to close a tab they have changed " first. I actually ask Prof. St. Clair on Thursday about the highlight thing, she said if it's complex, I don't need to do it. It's not simple, so I will try my best to get it done as soon as possible.

Okay, thanks! I agree on tab close save prompt is more important than highlighting, so definitely focus on that first. Highlighting would be very nice if you can get to it, but don't feel too pressured.

Quick question: do we want an alert to remind users save files or an alert to ask users if they want to save their files?
I remembered that we just want a remind alert so just double check. @apotheos

Something like, "This file has changed since you last saved it. Are you
sure you want to close?"

I'm curious as to where we are on this feature.
