Extra highlighters

[wp]

Several contributors have provided new syntax highlighters for SynEdit in the bug report https://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=18248.

These highlighters now are available on Lazarus Code and Component Repository in folder "components/extrasyn" (https://sourceforge.net/p/lazarus-ccr/svn/HEAD/tree/components/extrasyn/).

There are about 35 highlighters like ruby, haskel, eiffel, fortran, modula 3, CA-Clipper, prolog, cobol etc. There is a runtime and designtime package: compile the runtime package and install the designtime package. There is also a test application that creates and loads the highlighters. Some of them do not provide sample code and will not show anything in the test application.

After some testing period the packages will also be made available through Online Package Manager.

Nice!

The Lua one I was using in a project, maybe when ready in OPM I can do the switch.

Also the Inno one, really good to have a custom viewer for that setup files.
