I want to write some really simple notes to myself about some code I am writing.

Actually, it would be sufficient just to put e.g. [CODE]...[/CODE] brackets round bits of quoted code so that it appears a different colour.

I found a list at What languages does Pluma / Gedit text editor cover for syntax highlighting?

But that is rather daunting. I'm not keen to research all the items listed there.

Can anyone recommend a very simple option that would do what I want?

  • Simply use Markdown. – N0rbert Oct 21 '20 at 20:08
  • @N0rbert Well, I've installed markdown.lang on my system. I suppose I could also install a special Markdown editor. Pluma highlights it thus, which is not quite what I had in mind: > 3a Replace ```php $result = $db->query($sql); if (DB::isError($result)) { etc.. } ``` with ```php $result = mysqli_query($dsn,$sql); if (!$result) { fp_sql_error_message("my error message"); exit; } ``` – desconocido Oct 23 '20 at 00:23
  • Then install ReText and enjoy. – N0rbert Oct 23 '20 at 12:17
