I am planning to play a bit more with this editor, and Erlang support is a great idea.
If anybody want's to start right now, and is not too familiar with Javascript, let me say a few things. CodeMirror and its base framework MochiKit (written by Bob Ippolito), are written in a very Erlang-like way (functional). You have to write a parser for Erlang (there are example parsers for Javascript and XML/XHTML) and a CSS file for syntax highlighting. The good thing is that the Erlang grammar is very simple. regards Roberto On Jan 17, 5:37 am, "Yariv Sadan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I found this on Roberto's blog:http://marijn.haverbeke.nl/codemirror/.
