Done TCEdit and the syntax lexer (colorization)

[Joe Caverly]

From the help file;

TCEDIT will select the syntax lexer (colorization) based on the file extension:

.bat    TCMD (or CMD)
.btm    TCMD
.cmd    TCMD (or CMD)
.css    CSS
.htm    HTML
.html    HTML
.lua    Lua
.php    PHP
.pl    Perl
.ps1    PowerShell
.py    Python
.rb    Ruby
.sh    Bash shell
.sql    SQL
.tcl    Tcl/Tk
.vbs    VBScript
.xml    XML

The library files,
that I have created and use with TCC,
have the extension .library

When using TCEdit to edit the source of my .library files,
I get no syntax colorization.

I could rename my source.library to source.btm,
TCEdit source.btm,
and then rename source.btm back to source.library,
just to get syntax colorization.

I was wondering if an option could be added to TCEdit
to allow the user to alias an existing file extension,
for example, .btm
to the .library or .lst extension,
for example,
which would allow syntax colorization to be used,
in my case,
for the .library extension,
based on the .btm extension.

Selecting TCC Syntax from the options menu allows me to now have syntax colorization in the .library file that I am editing.

Thanks to @Alpengreis for the hint.

Perhaps this could be noted in the help file for TCEdit.
