SynEdit Lua syntax highlight

[Rave]

Anyone knows if there is SynEdit component for Lua syntax highlight? If so - where I can get it, because in near future i may be forced to make Lua editor and want to use Lazarus along with Synedit.

I don't know if any exists...

There may be for the original SynEdit:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/synedit/index.php?title=SynEdit_Home_Page

But they would not be compatible with the SynEdit in lazarus => and I don't know how well that original SynEdit will compile with Lazarus...

There is a highlighter that allows to configure your own keywords => but they will not be context sensitive...

hm... So maybe one of Lazarus' devs can write TSynLua? Because I don't know lua syntax just will be need to make editor, and don't want to learn something that i probably never use.

I convert for fpc from luaforge 'luaedit' source.

There's a highlighter already;

http://sourceforge.net/p/synedit/user-components-patches/11/

although it might need bringing up to date...

also there's this project...http://vclua.99k.org/

Sourcecode is here;
http://sourceforge.net/projects/vclua/

looks like 4.2 (latest version) doesn't have the absolute latest source for the editor - but 4.1 appears to (Lazarus source and has a Lua SynEdit file);

This Highlighter is compatible with pre-lua 5.1, some modification need for lazarus

(edit)
 converted it to fpc, but some bugs in original source.
