It’s installed through a meta-link on AbstractNautilusUI >> #addIconStyle and uses RubConfigurationChange to announce on the editor’s sourceTextModel. It is not yet a proper Nautilus plugin and should be portable to Calypso, as it still uses Rubric.

I built a little syntax highlighting extension for the Nautilus source code pane, which puts a background color behind blocks, so that nested blocks are easily recognizable.

Install with:

Metacello new baseline: 'BlockStyler'; repository: 'github://maenu/BlockStyler/repository <>'; load

GitHub: https://github.com/maenu/BlockStyler <https://github.com/maenu/BlockStyler>

Doesn’t work with “Format as you read”, just as the IconStyler. If anybody has an idea how to integrate it properly into Nautilus as a plugin, let me know. Currently it’s an ugly meta-link hack to get access to the sourceTextModel.

Cheers, Manuel

And I did pull request https://github.com/maenu/BlockStyler/pull/1 which simplifies everything. There are already IconStyler hierarchy for such kind of extensions. So I adopt your code for this and remove metalink tricks. Also I move settings directly to the BlockStyler class 2017-09-07 11:37 GMT+02:00 Denis Kudriashov <dionisiydk@gmail.com>:

Hi.

I will look. Maybe Calypso plugins are already able to do this kind of extensions

Well, it has something similar now:

This is really useful in the context of Seaside render blocks.

How hard would it be to also add vertical "lines" at the sides like in the following screenshot: <image.png>

Best regards!

Hi Manuel, Thanks very much for making this available and taking the trouble to get it working with the light theme as well. On Fri, Sep 08, 2017 at 06:37:12AM +0000, Cyril Ferlicot wrote:

Hi,

I would like to get the ratio of "darkening"/"lightening" as a setting if possible. I find the change of color a little abrupt but since it is a personal taste I would like to customize only for myself. So a setting could be cool.

Else, this is a really cool plugin :) I'll definitively use it.

I was about to send exactly the same email. When I first looked at the plugin with the dark theme (which I can't use, as I can't see it clearly) the colour change seemed to be less pronounced, but in the light theme, as Cyril says, it is too big a change. Thanks again, Alistair

Alain did it in the process browser. On Thu, Sep 7, 2017 at 3:54 PM, Esteban A. Maringolo <emaringolo@gmail.com> wrote:
