Section 9. Datalogger Program Creation with CRBasic Editor

The Syntax Highlighting tab sets up the appearance of different text elements
in the program using different font styles and colors. You can customize the
appearance of the text by giving normal text, keywords, comments, operators,
numbers, strings, and parentheses each a different font style and color to make
the program easier to read and edit. Text colors and styles can be disabled by
clearing the Enable Syntax Highlighting check box.

Note that if special formatting (font style, color) is assigned to Matched
Parentheses
, when your cursor is on an opening or closing parenthesis it will
be highlighted with the formatting, and the “other half” of that parenthesis will
also be highlighted. When your cursor moves off the parenthesis, the
formatting will return to normal text.
