Strings that do not start with double quote

[palou]

Hi all,

I'm writting VHDL and have strings that not start with quotes
i.e: X"CAFE_BEBE" for hexadecimal string
or B"0010_0011" for binary string

Is there a way to correctly higlight those strings?

Thank's

Try this:

1) Replace String Chars = definition by Noquote (case-sensitive!!!).

2) Delete the string characters from the /Delimiters = list.

3) Define a special color group for your strings with the substring expression. See UltraEdit help about Syntax Highlighting for details. Example:

/C8"Strings"
** " B" X"

4) Assign your default string color to this color group.

Thank's Mofi.

I did as you explain except for the "Noquote" (because I want to highlight standard strings too) and it seems to work just as I want.
