Notepad++ – customised syntax highlighting

notepad

Is it possible to customise Notepad++ to perform begin and end matching when displaying the programming language Verilog?

I would like it to highlight the corresponding begin / end when my text cursor is over either of the two – identical to what happens when my text cursor is over an open or closed bracket, like this image explains:

Is there a general solution for altering syntax highlighting, specifically highlighting pairs of words/punctuation marks not specific to Verilog?

Best Answer

SynWrite editor has fully customizable lexers (also for Verilog - verilog lexer isn't included by default, needs to be unpacked from MoreLexers.rar and be installed). SynWrite allows to hilite both begin / end words, when caret is over this begin-end block. (This can be configured for a lexer).
