How do I make Eclipse to highlight .ini files?
In the menu Window/Preferences, General/Content Types, Test/Configutation files, in the box "File associations:" I can see:
*.cfg (locked) *.ini (locked)
but I don't know either if this has something to do with the matter, or what can I do see the ini files highlighted instead of flat-black.
Does eclipse support ini higlighting natively? How do I activate it? Or maybe do I have to install a plugin? Which one?
You can reach this location by first right clicking on Eclipse app and click on “Show Package Contents” and then in the next window navigate to Contents/Eclipse directory, as shown in below images. Here is the example eclipse. ini file from my default eclipse installation.
It's not a common practice for people to open or edit INI files, but they can be opened and changed with any text editor. Just double-clicking it will automatically open it in the Notepad application in Windows.
ini in your Eclipse installation directory (or in the case of Mac, the Eclipse. app/Contents/MacOS directory) is used. eclipse. ini is a text file containing command-line options that are added to the command line used when Eclipse is started up.
The INI file which contains the Program Options is stored in the user's Windows\application_data folder (something like C:\Users\pguth\AppData\Roaming\microdem\microdem. ini) .
I've just found this plugin that seems to do the trick. It is a little overzealous and assigns itself to all known filetypes but editing Preferences > General > Editors > File Associations
can solve this.
