Thanks for the vote of support! I dream of the day when we get a proper SAS IDE!!!! This post is because I'm trying to avoid the task of going through the sas doc to get all the keywords. I think though it will be the only way to get them 😞
The parser extends Syntax Highlighter written by Alex Gorbatchev. The highlighter can be found here.
Once I have a suitable release you can find my parser at my google code site here. It will contain the language file and a css file with the colors. I also aim to release a code viewer (written in .NET) that allows you to view code stored on the file system within a browser.
I haven't uploaded anything yet but will be in the next few days.
The color coding does extend to macro definitions
🙂
Gettting the highlighter to contextually highlight correctly along with something resembling intelli-sense will be v2.0 release
😉
At present I have it highlighting;
- comments (except *;)</li><br>
<li>libnames</li> <br>
<li>ods</li> <br>
<li>strings</li> <br>
<li>formats/informats</li> <br>
<li>sas supplied macros (%symget %sysfunc %put etc.)</li> <br>
<li>Variable Definitions (%global, %let %local etc)</li><br>
<li>user defined macros</li> <br>
<li>data/proc/run;/quit;</li> <br>
<li>All Base Procs (9.1.3)</li><br>
<li>keywords</li></li>
