I have copied configuration from python and customized a simple cobra highlighter.

To use it, copy python config and replace file in C:\Documents and Settings\User\Program Data\ICSharpCode\SharpDevelop3.0\modes\
With the one I will attach as soon as i can find which file extension is allowed on this forum to attach files.

There is a SharpDevelop sub forum which hasn't enjoyed a lot of activity yet. I think this should be posted there.

@agustech: thanks for opening the route to the much needed #D plugin. Now that you seem familiar with the plugin, can you make an outline of the work that remains to be done to improve it? We could maybe identify critical tasks and create tickets for them. I would personally accept a few.

Also, I think Chuck created a BitBucket project for the SharpDevelop plugin, maybe that would be a better place to upload the code than this forum.

Yes there is a BitBucket project at http://bitbucket.org/snake_eyes/cobradevelop/

I went with BitBucket/mercurial in the hope that "CobraDevelop" would be a very peer-to-peer project.

Also, check out the wiki tab for some intro notes.

I don't normally have time to work on this as I'm busy with the compiler and also get tapped for presentations, discussion, etc. on Cobra.

Ok. I have created my own repo to work on the addIn. Meanwhile you can download the simple highlighter from here:

http://wiki.sharpdevelop.net/AddinWritingHelp.ashx <-- SharpDevelop's Guide on how to create an Add-in

So the goal is to create a "Cobra Language Binding" ?

[Charles]

Correct, but I never have time to work on the IDE support as I'm always busy on the compiler. Hopefully, someone will take an interest in this.
