JSON Highlighter for Kate 2007-10-09


I just finished a JSON highlighter for Kate and KWrite. It comes with

  • folding,
  • escape-sequence standout,
  • different colors for keys and values and
  • basic error marking

The highlighter should work for KDE3 as well and can be downloaded here.

The screenshot shows JSPF draft code. JSPF is the JSON counterpart of the XML-based XML Sharable Playlist Format, short XSPF.

Will be very useful for developing javascript, json projects in, so I hugely appreciate your efforts in developing this ;)

Nice!!
i have one question.

is there any plugin to autocomplete js or php code with kate? i think is the best option to develope code but i miss an autocompletion tool to write code easier.

Thanks.

Hello,

nice work, but I found a bug:
http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/kate-syntax-highlighting-fehlerhafte-markups/

Perhaps you can fix it?

I hate to sound ignorant, but how do you “use” this plugin?

Thanks.
