Merci Philippe!
The only thing I need is the same thing as the cpp properties file
but variable that begins with $ ... my c++ skill is not good enough to
compile my own.... anyone want to modify the c++ lexer to make a
melscript (.mel) .... the only difference is the $ for the variable ?
thanks!

Welcome!
for melscript but how? Here my question
Another language I didn't knew. :-)
It seems to be related to the 3D program Maya, isn't it?
I downloaded a random script
<http://highend3d.com/maya/downloads/mel_scripts/utility_external/misc/3903.html>
out of curiosity.
1) Can I copy I modify an existing property file like cpp.properties
and call it mel.properties and change everithing from .cpp to .mel
(doesnt seem to work ;o) )
Somehow, see below.
2) Is it possible to modify the cpp.properties to know that variable
begins with a $? In mel u have something like this -> int $variable
= 1; (ada.properties highlight the variable like I wanted but u dont
have the folding and a lot of missing feature)
PHP and Perl have variables starting with $.
Since the script I got uses backticks ` Perl lexer doesn't look bad on
it. You can experiment by activating languages in the menu.language
property, then selecting one or another.
3) Is there any step by step to create our how properties file? or do
I have to compile my own version ....
The real answer is: you have to code and compile your own version to
fully support all the features of this language.
Now, choosing a lexer and abusing the .properties file to come close
of a correct syntax highlighting can be done. It has been done, for
example, for the AutoHotkey (AHK) language, using the Asm lexer.
