What is a language INI file?

INI file
A language INI file makes it possible to use syntax coloring based on character combinations in the text file. For example,
[Tag1] ColorGroup =Comment BeginTag =// EndTag = MultiLine =0 EscapeChar=#
This code will instruct the edit control to mark items following the "//" to be colored as commented text (green by default). To set this for VB, you would simply use BeginTag=’ instead of BeginTag=//
C# and VB INI files are included with Essential Edit and can be used as a basis for your customization.
