Subject: AW: [docbook-apps] Syntax Highlighting in synopsis elements


Oops, I thought "synopsis" included all types of synopsis elements. 

Thank you for your answer!

But in your source there is no synopsis element, only classsynopsis etc.
 Generally syntax highlighting is working in "verbatim" elements. I suppose that in classsynopsis you can quite easily add highlighting by overriding templates for nested elements like ooclass, modifier, ...

In theory syntax highlighting could be combined with the current classsynopsis code, but I'm not sure how well will highlighting fit into templates for nested elements. You can file new RFE at SourceForge site, so once developers have free time (;-)) they might try to implement this feature.
