Arduino IDE (or external editor) - code smarts

Post by randyray »

How does Tyler Cooper (or anyone else) get the Arduino IDE (or external editor) to contain color coded "smarts" for the Arduino language?
As shown here..... https://learn.adafruit.com/how-to-make- ... g/the-code

The IDE already does this in a limited way and other editors can also do what is called Syntax highlighting. Eclipse Komodo and Sublime Text 2 all do it and there is a plugin for Sublime that allows you to write, compile and upload Arduino code from the editor.

Is the "Arduino plugin" called Stino from Robot-Will...or is it another?
I don't seem to find one actually called "Arduino plugin"
Thanks for all your help.
